Effect of humidity on electrospun polycaprolactone nanofiber formation using neddleless electrospinning

This paper presents the effect of humidity on electrospun polycaprolactone nanofiber formation using neddleless electrospinning. The nanofiber was made using a NS Lab needleless electrospinning working at the applied voltage of 35 kV. Morphology of the fiber was analyzed using scanning electron micr...
