Nano- means one by one milion thousand meter in size, that is, the technique dealing with 10-9m is so-called nano-technique. In our laboratory, we're focusing on preparation of the nanofibers of organic/inorganic materials(synthesized polymer, natural polymer, metal) by means of electrospinning. Fibers fabricated in this way are around from few micro- to nanometer. We're focusing to apply these nanofibers in advanced biomedical field, industrial filtration, textile fibers, composite, biosensor and sensor. The modification of microfibers can be done by controlling hydrophilicity, different physical properties, preparing porus nanofibers and organic/inorganic hybrid nanofibers.
Research field
Welcome to Lab of inorganic and organic nanomaterials
"Where we serve mankind. In the last decade nanofibers have increased tremendous applications in number of fields. If the diameters of polymer fiber materials are reduced from micrometers to nanometers (e.g. 1 to 500 nm), there appear several peculiar properties such as very large surface area to volume ratio (this ratio for a nanofiber can be as large as one thousand times of that of a microfiber), flexibility in surface functionalities, and excellent mechanical properties (e.g. stiffness and tensile strength) compared with any other known form of the material. These outstanding properties make the polymer nanofibers to be strong candidates for many important applications. Various applications of nanofibers in different fields is given in [Scheme 1].
