The coming era of nanotechnology and the production of polymer fibers: A brief review on nanotechnology
Keywords:
Nanotechnology, electro-spinning , nanofibers , polymer fibersAbstract
Nanotechnology involve the manipulation of materials on a very small scale in order to build microscopic
machinery. Applying the knowledge of the structure of matter, these microscopic materials can be
upgraded to complex objects with molecular precision. This area of science and technology is new and is
receiving greater attention. Presently, progress is being made towards tailoring the morphology of
materials by means of electrospinning process to form polymeric materials and for a variety of
applications. In this brief review, the importance and areas of applications of nanotechnology have been
examined.
