Technology

Unlike traditional needle electrospinning where the number of jets is limited by the number of installed needles, the free-surface spinning nature of SNC BEST® allows jets to self-arrange and self-optimize, drastically increasing throughput.

Advantages vs. Needle Electrospinning

SNC BEST® offers several advantages over needle electrospinning:

No Needle Requirement:

Needles are prone to clogging, inconsistent flow, and limited control over fiber properties. SNC BEST® eliminates these problems by directly ejecting the polymer solution through a free liquid surface.

Simplified Setup:

Enhanced Process Control:

Higher Production Rates:

SNC BEST® allows easy control over various process parameters such as flow rate and electric field strength, resulting in more precise control over fiber properties like diameter, alignment, and morphology.

SNC BEST® allows the jets to self-arrange and self-optimize, enabling faster polymer jet acceleration and increased fiber production

Versatility in Substrate Selection:

Since there is no needle involved, SNC BEST® allows for a wider range of collectors to be used, including non-conductive materials such as foils, papers, fabrics, or even rotating drum for diverse applications.

SNC BEST® has a much simpler setup than needle electrospinning systems which translates into easier experimentation and scalability.

Reduced Risk of Contamination:

Needle electrospinning systems may introduce impurities or metal ions into the polymer solution, which can affect the properties of the resulting fibers. SNC BEST® mitigates this concern, making it suitable for applications where purity is critical.
