- Additional information
- This study demonstrates for the first time a method of controlled multiple fibre type integration for the development of composite membranes. A new spinneret system has been designed and engineered which permits the fabrication of aligned-blended fibre production with rate and ratio control. The spinneret system is capable of hosting numerous individual polymer solutions, providing an opportunistic approach to prepare aligned fibrous matrices comprising two or more materials. The technology has been developed and used showing a method to control inherent properties of the composite fibres. Research includes patent (CN 201710579212.3).
