GlossaryElectrospinning

process creating fine fibers using high-voltage electric field

Electrospinning is a process used to create very fine fibers from a liquid by applying a high-voltage electric field. This technique is often used in biomedical applications, such as creating scaffolds for tissue engineering or drug delivery systems, because it can produce fibers with diameters ranging from nanometers to micrometers, mimicking the extracellular matrix of natural tissues.
