Global Nanofibers Market: Nanofiber Membranes Extending the Usability and Efficiency of Face Masks in the Fight Against COVID-19

DUBLIN, May 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "The Global Market for Nanofibers" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The use of nanofiber membranes can extend the usability and efficiency of face masks, even after washing. Innovation in nanofibers has increased significantly, with several producers increased their manufacturing capability in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.

Nanofibers have exceptionally high surface-area-to-volume ratio and high porosity, which makes them attractive materials for a range of applications. They have wide-ranging morphologies and are produced using a variety of materials such as:

• Natural polymers.
• Synthetic polymers.
• Carbon nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, graphene, carbon nanofibers)
• Semiconducting materials
• Composite materials.
• Chitin
• Wood and other pulp (cellulose nanofibers)

Techniques such as centrifugal spinning, electrospinning, meltblowing and bicomponent spinning have been studied extensively for the production of nanofibers with varying degrees of commercial success. There have also been several new synthesis methods developed. The market for nanofibers generally encompasses polymer nanofibers, alumina nanofibers and to a lesser extent carbon nanofiber and cellulose nanofibers.

Main applications of nanofibers are:

• Air/water filtration (membranes).
• Composites.
• Biomedical (bone/skin regeneration, tissue scaffolds, hydrogel bandages for wound care).
• Protective textiles and wearable electronics.
• Energy Storage (battery separators, conductive additives for batteries).
• Textiles.

Report contents include:

• Recent initiatives using nanofibers to aid the response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• Companies developing anti-viral filtration and face masks products.
• Market volume for nanofibers, historical and forecast to 2030.
