An Optimization Study for the Electrospun Borate Ester Nanofibers as Light‐Weight, Flexible, and Affordable Neutron Shields for Personal Protection

Abstract In this manuscript, a borate ester solution, as a precursor, is prepared by combining polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and boric acid (BA). The precursor is then electrospun to form nanofibers. However, the addition of BA has a negative effect on the spinning behavior by changing the conductivity. T...
