- Abstract
Pharmaceutical formulations, polymer-based nanofibers, which have higher surface area per unit mass of solid, enable and contribute to functions linked to surface shape. Nanofibers can be made using a number of different methods, but only electrospinning technology has been specifically focused on producing a wide variety of these common polymer-based nanofibers. The manufacturing potential of just this method is enormous. Electrospinning is also the most versatile, as it can produce a wide range of nanowire assemblies that, with the right tweaks, might improve the performance of goods made from Nanofibers. For these reasons, it is crucial and necessary to study the many factors and procedures that go into making the best possible nanofibers. Standard processes and tools may be used to examine nanofibers' structure, morphology, and geometry, as well as their tensile and elongation characteristics. In this article, we take a look at the various ways in which polymer composite nanofibers can be used in tissue engineering, such as in tissue scaffolds and cutting-edge wound dressings for chronic wound therapy, in addition to their potential roles in drug delivery systems, in clothing protectors, and sensors. There are just a select few of these products that have been released so far, but more nano- and bio-sciences products are expected to hit the market shortly. Polymer-based nanofibers have emerged as a result of efforts to commercialize these applications. A variety of fields, including biology, nutrition, bioengineering, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare, find this structured fiber useful.
