Abstract
Electrospinning is a promising technique to produce ultrafine nanofibers. The fabrication of fibers has the drawback of instability, which was outlined by various researchers and is discussed in this chapter. In an attempt to study this in detail, we constructed melt electrospinning equipment with two parallel metal disks to produce a uniform electric field. We utilized polypropylene as the source material to electrospin nanofiber. The prepared fiber was examined by both experimental and finite simulation methods in a parallel electric field. As a result, the parallel electric field influence on the two parallel metal disks with the same diameter effectively decreases jet buckling in melt electrospinning.
