Abstract EN
Nanofibers have a wide range of applications, including filtration and biomedical engineering.
Porous or hollow fibers with large surface-to-volume ratios are more popular in some fields than the common nanofibers.
Porous nanofibers can be obtained through electrospinning with highly volatile solvents or through special treatment following electrospinning.
A new process where electrospinning is conducted in supercritical or near-critical CO2 to produce porous or hollow nanofibers has been summarized.
In addition, a process entailing compressed N2-assisted electrospinning was attempted to produce PVP nanofibers in this work, but it was proved to be unsuccessful.
Since the fiber morphologies are dependent on the phase behavior of organic solvents in supercritical fluids, ASPEN PLUS 2006 was used to simulate the phase equilibrium of the solvent-supercritical fluid system to explain why porous or hollow fibers can be obtained in compressed CO2, but not in compressed N2.
