Abstract

Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) have a broad spectrum of applications, including sensor manufacturing, electrochemical catalysis, and energy storage. Among different manufacturing methods, electrospinning, due to its simplicity and efficiency, has emerged as one of the most powerful commercial large-scale production techniques. Numerous researchers have been attracted to improving the performance of CNFs and exploring new potential applications. This paper first discusses the working theory of manufacturing electrospun CNFs. Next, the current efforts in upgrading the properties of CNFs, such as pore architecture, anisotropy, electrochemistry, and hydrophilicity, are discussed. The corresponding applications due to the superior performances of CNFs are subsequently elaborated. Finally, the future development of CNFs is discussed.
