  2. 3.6. Self-organisation of electrospinning jets on free liquid surfaces

  3. Needle electrospinning: Self-organisation of the fluid in electrospinning is the underlying cause behind formation of the Taylor cone, the stable jet part, the whipping zone and evaporation of solvent. Now, it will be shown that the self-organising potential of electrospinning is even more forcerful since it has a power to organize : individual jets on free liquid surfaces without any need to use needless / capillaries to create them. This finding is enormously attractive regarding the recent effort to elevate electrospinning technology to industrial level because it opens a chance to design simple as well as highly productive lines for nanofibrous layer production.
