The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Mechanical and structural characterization of electrospun PAN-derived carbon nanofibers (2005, background): “Fibers can be electrospun from polymer solutions in a fairly cost-effective manner [11,12].”
Electrospinning of polymer nanofibers: Effects on oriented morphology, structures and tensile properties (2010, neutral): “It is seen that the filtration efficiency of the electrospun mats is comparable to the commercially available filters but the advantage lies in the filter mass which is substantially lower for the former than the latter [23,98].”
A Review: Electrospinning of Biopolymer Nanofibers and their Applications (2008, background): “Non-woven electrospun fibrous mats composed of biopolymers could offer specific applications including air filtration, protective clothing, substitutes for agricultural pesticides, and nanocomposites.(10) More discussion about the applications of nanofibrous mats is found in Section 3.”
