Confined oil in beaded polymeric fibers with advanced thermoregulating properties
RPI ID: 2019-033-201, 2019-033-601 Innovation Summary: A coaxial wet-wet electrospinning process enables the creation of core-shell microfibers, where the core contains a phase-change material (PCM) like coconut oil and the shell is composed of cellulose. The fibers are extruded into an ethanol-water coagulation bath, forming a beaded morphology with...
