Abstract

Electrospinning is a valuable and effective system to create ultrafine nanofibers. Due to its flexibility, cost efficiency, in addition, the potential to be used in a broad range of uses, it has been a method of excellent science and industrial concern, bringing about a notable potential for nanotechnology. Since it is considered to be the most encouraging way of producing coherent nanofibers on a big scale, there is an enormous measure of work and research in this region, both in academic and industrial circles, with the aim of using the technology in a broad spectrum of applications. Many artificial and natural polymers have been used in this method. The electrospun fibers generated by this technique offer numerous benefits such as the elevated surface area to volume magnitude relationship, adjustable porosity and also the capacity to regulate nanofiber structure in order to obtain the required characteristics and performance. Notable applications are embodied in tissue engineering, biosensors, filtration, wound dressings, drug delivery and enzyme realization. This review document can provide an overview and overview of the method of electrospinning and its process parameters, as well as its implementation in various areas.Keywords: Electrospinning, electrospinning process parameters, electrospun nanofibers, functional nanofibers.
