As spinning process continues to iterate and advance, an increasing number of tube parts are being formed by spinning process, encompassing both ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Concurrently, composite ...

Researchers drew inspiration from the spider silk spinning process to fabricate strong, stretchable, and electrically conductive soft fibers. Their novel technique overcomes the challenges of ...

Despite their immense potential, the road to translating the superlative properties of individual carbon nanotubes into high-performance macroscopic fibers and yarns has been fraught with challenges.

The new process, called gel electrospinning, is described in a paper by MIT professor of chemical engineering Gregory Rutledge and postdoc Jay Park. The paper appears online and will be published in ...

AeroLas GmbH (Munich, Germany) has developed a spinning process by which discontinuous filaments of carbon fiber can be combined with a thermoplastic fiber to create a yarn material that has potential ...

A recent study published in Advanced Materials Technologies introduced a microfluidic spinning process to create poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) microfibers.

Black widow spider silk is extremely strong. By weight, it is stronger than steel. This has made it of keen interest to scientists looking to recreate its incredible properties in the laboratory. Now, ...
