本工作描述了羟丙基纤维素（HPC）为基础的仿生束凝胶纤维的制造和表征。用多壁碳纳米管（MWCNTs）增强成束的凝胶纤维。将具有MWCNT和HPC的相分离的水溶液注入共流微流体装置并施加鞘流后，将其转化为成束的纤维结构。所得的MWCNT束凝胶纤维由多个平行的微纤维组成。多壁碳纳米管束凝胶纤维的机械和电气性能得到改善，并证明了其作为细胞支架的组织工程应用的潜力。
This work describes the fabrication and characterization of hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC)-based biomimetic bundled gel fibres. The bundled gel fibres were reinforced with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). A phase-separated aqueous solution with MWCNT and HPC was transformed into a bundled fibrous structure after being injected into a co-flow microfluidic device and applying the sheath flow. The resulting MWCNT-bundled gel fibres consist of multiple parallel microfibres. The mechanical and electrical properties of MWCNT-bundled gel fibres were improved and their potential for tissue engineering applications as a cell scaffold was demonstrated.
