Post-processed chemical treatment of polyimide electrospun nonwovens with ethylenediamine for biomedical applications

The generation of electrospun nonwovens from polyimide (PI) is challenging as the fibers are prone to distinct delamination. In consequence, the resulting nonwoven material has particularly low structural integrity and loose fibre interlocking, demanding for a follow-up treatment, such as high tempe...
