Abstract
The invention relates to a highly aligned and closely packed electrospun fiber assembly, wherein the fibers have at least an extension part or pore on the surface thereof. The invention also relates to a microtube array membrane (MTAM), comprising fiber assembly of the present disclosure. The invention also relates to the applications of these electrospun fiber assemblies in biological applications, and method of manufacturing these electrospun fiber assemblies.
Claims17
A hollow electrospun fiber assembly, comprising multiple fibers having nanoscale hair-like structures extended from an inner surface thereof, wherein the hair-like structures consist of the material of the fibers and have a length ranging from 100 nm to 1 μm and an aspect ratio of up to 20:1, and wherein the surface coverage of the hair-like structure is about 10% to about 80%.
A hollow electrospun fiber assembly, comprising multiple fibers having nanoscale hair-like structures extended from an inner surface thereof, wherein the fiber has a core-shell structure, and the core is composed of a mixture of PLA, PEO, and PEG.
