What are nanofibers?
Nanofibers, also often referred to as polymeric nanofibers, lack a widely accepted formal definition. Informal nonwovens, textile and other engineered fiber industry jargon will often accept the term nanofibers for fibers with any diameter size smaller than 1,000 nanometers, or 1 micron. Elmarco’s equipment makes the finest, most uniform nanofibers that are commercially available and produced on industrial scale equipment. We define nanofibers as fibers with a diameter of less than 500 nm capable of being produced in a continuous mat with fiber size uniformity that has a standard deviation of 30% or less.
