About the book
Nanofibers are fibers with diameters in the range of nanometer which can be generated from different polymers. Nanofibers are fabricated by different techniques such as electrospinning, self-assembly, template-assisted synthesis, and thermal-induced phase separation. They have different physical and chemical properties with potential applications in various fields. The recent applications of nanofibers have greatly influenced many fields, including material science, engineering, chemistry, environmental, and medical sciences.
This book aims to present an overview of the current status of nanofibers, fabrication and recent trends in the fabrication of nanofibers, and functional nanofibers and applications of nanofibers in various fields including environmental, bio-sensing, drug delivery, catalysis, and medical. The book hopes to provide a piece of up-to-date information about the mentioned topics and fundamental knowledge necessary for the advanced study in the field of nanofibers and their applications, making it interesting to research students, scientists, engineers, and material scientists.
