This paper introduces a new approach to translate functions from nanoparticles to fibrous structures by co-electrospinning. Examples of nanofibres that have tailorable mechanical, electrical, magnetic, optical, thermal, hygroscopic, and antimicrobial functions are shown. The paper concludes with an example of the development of a multifunctional nanofibre scaffold for cartilage tissue regeneration.}, issn = {2617-8699}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.3993/jfbi09200801}, url = {https://global-sci.com/article/86918/functional-nanofibre-enabling-material-for-the-next-generation-smart-textiles} }
