ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The main objective of this study was to develop electrospun nanofibres with both antimicrobial and antibiofouling properties for possible application in water filtration. To do this, two routes were ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Polymeric nanofibrous membranes that act as surfaces offer two compelling properties; they have extremely large surface areas that can be modified and they can offer multiple reactive sites depending on ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Novel silicone nanocomposites were prepared using poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) based reinforcing fibres as well as multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Compatibility of the fibre fillers with the silicone ...
