Abstract

Electrospinning, a polymer processing technique to create nanofibrous membranes, has been used to fabricate fibrous membranes from solution and melt phases showing supramolecular order. Wormlike micellar phases of low molar mass amphiphiles, including the phospholipid mixture asolectin, were electrospun under normal conditions to form micron-sized fibers. From the melt, well defined phospholipid 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine was electrospun into a similar fibrous membrane. Additionally, thermoreversible physical crosslinks were used to prepare fibers from low molecular weight, star-shaped poly(D,L-lactide) under melt electrospinning conditions.
