A MODIFIED YANG-LAPLACE EQUATION FOR THE BUBBLE ELECTROSPINNING CONSIDERING THE EFFECT OF HUMIDITY
ABSTRACT
Polymer bubbles can be used for green mass-production of environmental friendly nanofibers with less energy consumption than any other classical methods. A modified Yang-Laplace equation is derived considering the effect of humidity. The paper concludes that the humidity is an effective parameter in controlling the spinning process.
