Formation and characterisation of continuous electrospun nanofibre yarns

澳大利亚历史上拥有强大的纤维和纺织业，可以通过拥抱新兴的纳米技术来扩大这一行业。这项拟议的研究将开发一种技术，可以极大地提高纳米纤维的生产率。然后这些纤维可以纺成连续的纱线和其他形式的纺织产品。这些纳米结构产品为生物医学和环境应用提供了特殊的功能。这项新技术有可能改变澳大利亚的纺织技术和纤维加工行业。

Australia historically has a strong fibre and textile industry that can be augmented by embracing emerging nanotechnology. The proposed research will develop a technology that can greatly improve the productivity of nanofibres. These fibres can then be spun into continuous yarns and other form of textile products. The nanostructured products offer exceptional functions for biomedical and environmental applications. This new technology has the potential to transform the Australian textile technology and fibre processing industry.
