  • Patent number: 10041189
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for production of polymeric nanofibers, in which polymeric nanofibers are created due to the action of force of an electric field on solution or melt of a polymer, which is located on the surface of a spinning electrode, whereby the electric field for electrostatic spinning is created alternately between the spinning electrode (1), to which is supplied alternating voltage, and ions (30, 31) of air and/or gas generated and/or supplied to proximity of the spinning electrode (1), whereby according to the phase of the alternating voltage on the spinning electrode (1) polymeric nanofibers with an electric charge of opposite polarity and/or with segments with an electric charge of opposite polarity are created, which after their creation cluster together under the influence of the electrostatic forces into linear formation in the form of a tow or a band, which moves freely in space in direction of gradient of the electric fields away from the spinning electrode (1).

  • Patent number: 9592476
    Abstract: Disclosed are membranes formed from self-assembling block copolymers, for example, a diblock copolymer of the formula (I): wherein R1-R4, n, and m are as described herein, which find use in preparing nanoporous membranes. Embodiments of the membranes contain the block copolymer that self-assembles into a cylindrical morphology. Also disclosed is a method of preparing such membrane which involves hybrid casting a polymer solution containing the block copolymer to obtain a thin film, followed by evaporation of some of the solvent from the thin film, and coagulating the resulting this film in a bath containing a nonsolvent or poor solvent for the block copolymer.

  • Patent number: 9383292
    Abstract: A fluidic probe comprising a plurality of oriented fibers with individual fibers having nano-pores in the fiber bodies, the oriented fibers being twisted together, wherein the twisted oriented fibers form micro-pores between the individual fibers, is disclosed. The fluidic probe exhibits excellent flexibility, deployability and absorptive capacity. The enhanced absorptive capacity is due to the fluid absorption via capillary action of the nano-pores and fluid transport via the micro-pores. The probes can also be formed so as to be remotely controlled by electromagnetic fields and thus be used in a hands-free fashion. With these probes, the paradigm of a stationary microfluidic platform can be shifted to include flexible structures that can include multiple microfluidic sensors in a single fibrous probe.

  • Patent number: 7585437
    Abstract: A method of nanofibers production from a polymer solution uses electrostatic spinning in an electric field created by a potential difference between a charged electrode and a counter electrode. The polymer solution for spinning is supplied into the electric field using the surface of a rotating charged electrode. On a part of the circumference of the charged electrode near to the counter electrode, a spinning surface is created for attaining a high spinning capacity. In a device for carrying out the method, the charged electrode is pivoted and part of its circumference is immersed in the polymer solution. The free part of the circumference of the charged electrode is positioned opposite the counter electrode.
