This in vitro study examined how an externally applied electric field influences the self-assembly of oppositely charged molecules in water into an ordered membrane. The authors report that electric fields changed the kinetics of membrane formation and altered membrane thickness, nanofiber growth orientation, and…

Jan 1, 2010
This engineering study describes a microwave-assisted method to synthesize polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers. Reported yields under microwave irradiation were similar to conventional synthesis but achieved in minutes rather than hours. Structural and morphological characterization (FTIR, Raman, SEM, TEM) reportedly…
