The present invention belongs to the field of functional fibrous materials, and discloses a magnetic fibrous material and a preparation method and application thereof. A polymer and a magnetic load raw material are dissolved in a solvent to obtain a uniform spinning solution; a solute component that reacts with the magnetic load raw material is added into a coagulation bath solvent to obtain a reactive coagulation bath solution; the spinning solution is electrospun, and the produced fiber is collected with the reactive coagulation bath solution, so that the magnetic load raw material in the fiber reacts in situ with the solute in the reactive coagulation bath solution to obtain the magnetic fibrous material.

A device for producing electrospun polymer short fibers has a dosing electrode (1) and a collector medium (3) opposite the dosing electrode (1) in the dosing direction (2). In order to create a device that enables continuous production of electrospun polymer short fibers, a cutting grid (5), which can be heated at least to the softening temperature of the polymer and which has a mesh size that corresponds to the minimum fiber length, is arranged upstream of the collector medium (3) in the dosing direction (2).

A method for producing a sheet having nanofibers that contain a piezoelectric polymer material. The method including dissolving a piezoelectric polymer material into a solvent so as to prepare a spinning solution; preheating a target board before nanofibers are formed by electrospinning the spinning solution; and, after the heating of the target board, receiving the nanofibers formed by electrospinning onto the heated target board so as to form the nanofibers into a sheet on the heated target board.

A stent or other prosthesis may be formed by coating a single continuous wire scaffold with a polymer coating. The polymer coating may consist of layers of electrospun polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Electrospun PTFE of certain porosities may permit endothelial cell growth within the prosthesis.

Expanded, nanofiber structures are provided as well as methods of use thereof and methods of making.

Methods for reaction electrospinning are provided to form collagen fibers. The method can include: acidifying a collagen in an acidic solvent to form an acidic collagen solution; electrospinning the acidic collagen solution within an alkaline atmosphere (e.g., including ammonia vapor) to form collagen fibers; and collecting the collagen fibers within a salt bath (e.g., including ammonium sulfate). The acidic solvent can include water and an alcohol, and can have a pH of about 2 to about 4 (e.g., including a strong acid, such as HCl). An albumin rubber is also provided, which can include albumin crosslinked with glutaraldehyde.

Disclosed are a composite nanofiber membrane for the adsorption of lithium, a method for preparing the same, and a lithium recovery apparatus and method using the same. The composite nanofiber membrane for the adsorption of lithium is immobilized with manganese oxide selectively adsorptive of lithium. The composite nanofiber membrane for lithium adsorption exhibits high selectivity for lithium ions and allows for the rapid and easy diffusion of lithium ions through interstitial spaces of the adsorbent. Particularly, the lithium recovery apparatus using the composite nanofiber membrane for lithium adsorption is able to effectively adsorb lithium ions dissolved in seawater in a selective manner within a short period of time, thus reducing the time taken for the adsorption process.

Expanded, nanofiber structures are provided as well as methods of use thereof and methods of making.

Microscale and nanoscale tubular structures are provided including rheological fluids in their interior volume and including at least one electroactive component. Multiple tubular structures are provided, including simple hollow tube structures; core/shell structures, wherein the tube includes a tubular outer shell with a core extending axially therein; concentric tube or coaxial tube structures, wherein the tube includes a tubular outer shell and one or more concentric tubes extending axially therein; and core/concentric tube structures, wherein concentric tubes further include a core extending axially therein, thus having a core and two or more tubes surrounding the core. The tubular structures are formed by electrospinning and special spinnerets are provided. The tubular structures form fabrics for beneficial uses.
