Overview
Key Facts
- During the Nanofiber Synthesis and Research at ITMO University i students will be offered a wide range of lectures on producing nanofiber with the method of electro-spinning.
- During practical classes, participants will acquire experience in working with the NANON device, learn to assert conditions of synthesis and prescription parameters for producing different kinds of nanofiber.
- In order to better research various characteristics, produced nanofiber will be studied with the help of up-to-date methods: Fourier-transform spectroscopy, thermal analysis complex, thermogravimetric analysis, and DSC.
