Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) electrospun membranes are obtained from a 20% w/w solution of the polymer in dimethyl formamide. Processing parameters are systematically changed to analyze their influence on fiber morphology, fiber orientation, and on the crystallinity and crystal phase of the membranes. The PVDF concentration and travelling distance from the needle to the collector are…

Abstract We have systematically investigated the production of “nanoemulsions,” droplets of one liquid phase in another immiscible liquid phase that have diameters less than 100 nm. Our approach relies on a combination of extreme shear due to multipass, high‐pressure microfluidic injection and systematic control of the emulsion's composition. By repeatedly shearing a silicone oil‐in‐water emulsion…
Bigels, combination of organogel and hydrogel, are unique solid-like formulations with improved properties for food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical applications. Bigel possesses merits of both phases, aqueous and oily, and displays better properties than either of the single gel. The uniqueness of bigels comes from their ability to deliver both hydrophilic and lipophilic active agents, enrichment…
Over the last two decades, organogels have found tremendous use in the pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetics industries with notable developments as drug delivery matrices and trans and saturated fat replacers in processed foods. The functionality of organogels benefits from their ease of preparation, cost effectiveness, and ability to contain both hydrophilic and lipophilic constituents. This…
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a significant polymer in the formation of nanofiber webs via the electrospinning technique. In this paper, three PVDF-wrinkled fiber webs with different molecular weights (MWs) (180000, 275000, and 530000) were generated via the electrospinning method by using tetrahydrofuran/N,N-dimethylformamide at the solvent ratio of 1:1 as a mixed solvent. The formation mechanism…
