CONTINUOUS NANOFIBER YARNS TWISTED THROUGH THREE-DIMENSIONAL HIGH-SPEED SWIRLING AIRFLOW

ABSTRACT
A new method is proposed to fabricate continuous twisted nanofiber yarns. Nanofibers are bunched by a double conjugate electrospinning, and then twisted through a three-dimensional high-speed swirling airflow. Its principle and process are analyzed theoretically, and the airflow field inside the nozzle chamber is studied numerically, and mechanical properties of nanofiber yarns at different spinning conditions are systematically discussed.
