The publisher has identified nine main industry segments where nanofibers have current and potential uses: consumer, defense and security; electronics and optoelectronics; energy; life science; mechanical, chemical and environmental; sensors and instrumentation; thermal and acoustic insulation; and transportation.

This study highlights the latest developments in nanofiber technology, including material types, fabrication processes and applications. It also offers a detailed market analysis for nanofiber-based products by segment (i.e., material, application, region), describing technical aspects and trends that will affect future market growth.

Nanofibers are used in the production of N95 masks. During the pandemic, several small companies developed masks using nanofibers. These fibers were made using a technique called "electrospinning." Several start-up companies produced nanofibers that help to capture aerosol droplets better while providing additional breathability. Some of these manufacturers are producing millions of masks each month.
