Micro sphere with nanoporosity by electrospinning

Abstract

Nanoporous structures are potentially of great technological interest for the development of electronic, catalytic and hydrogen-storage systems, invisibility device (e.g. stealth plane) and others. Here we describe a general strategy for the synthesis of micro sphere with nanoporosity by electrospinning, the porous sizes having uniform but tunable diameters can be controlled by voltage applied in the electrospinning process. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
