High-quality Janus nanofibers prepared using three-fluid electrospinning.

A structured spinneret comprising two acentric needles nested into a third metal capillary was developed to conduct three-fluid electrospinning processes. With an exterior solvent surrounding two core fluids arranged side-by-side, high quality polyvinylpyrrolidone/shellac Janus nanofibers could be prepared, which was not possible using a standard side-by-side spinneret without this innovation.
