In recent years, the technique of electrospinning has been used to develop a novel class micro- and nanoscale materials based on fibrous structures. Several polymers, in particular elastomers, that have implemented this process rely properties such as elasticity, flexibility, biocompatibility, low cost. Herein, we describe for first time natural rubber fibers without polymeric matrix obtain self-standing non-woven mats oriented elastomeric fibers. The average diameters were approximately 5.5...
With the advancement of nanotechnology, nanomaterials such as nanofibers have gained attention, they applications in technological, environmental and health areas. In this context, electrospinning stands out for being considered a simple versatile technique that allows production nanofibers. Carbon-based additives been used to compose polymeric matrix responsible obtaining nanofibers, graphene, which among its has gas sensors, it can detect some molecules, including ammonia. Thus, is...
