Summary of different collectors in electrospinning.
Type of Collector | Advantages | Disadvantages | References |
---|---|---|---|
Static collector 1. Metal plate collector ![]() |
Simple equipment | Random distribution of nanofibers Not conducive to stretching the nanofibers Low F(β) |
[91,92] |
2. Double-plate collector![]() |
Highly aligned nanofibers Enhance F(β) (compared with a mental plate collector) |
[93,94,] | |
3. Circle electrode collector![]() |
Easy to transfer membranes to the target substrates High productivity |
Random distribution of nanofibers Low F(β) |
[95] |
Rotating collector 1. Rotating drum collector ![]() |
Highly aligned nanofibers Enhance F(β) (compared with a mental plate collector) The large area of a nanofibrous membrane |
[96,97] | |
2. Rotating disk collector![]() |
Highly aligned nanofibers Enhance F(β) (compared with all other collectors) |
The small area of a nanofibrous membrane | [98,99,100] |
