Novel pressurised gyration device for making core-sheath polymer fibres

Core-sheath fibres of two polymers were generated using a novel set-up where rotating speed and pressure can be varied at ambient temperature. The specially designed spinneret consists of inner and outer chambers which can accommodate two polymers and other additives. The new methodology was demonst...
