ElectrospinTech provides a platform for knowledge and information on the electrospinning process so as to advance the science and understanding of the process and the utilization of nanofibers to create new materials and products. Information found on our platform includes upstream basic research to downstream consumer products.

MISSION

• Provides an electrospinning ecosystem for the evolution of nanofibers and its application

VISION

• Utilization of nanofibers to provide functional needs in engineered products

BELIEVES

• Open sharing of information will accelerate progress in science and technology while reducing resource wastage through less duplication of work and using inappropriate tools, materials and test methods
• Greater visibility and links between research outputs (both positive and negative results)
• Standardization of practices, data recording, materials, equipment used which will lead to more consistent results across research teams.
• Embracing "Crowd validation" and open discussion where collective knowledge, thoughts and experience is greater than an individual. For research output - Improving accuracy and repeatability of research results. For suppliers - Improve quality control of lab supplies and equipment used.
