On Wedneday morning, the group began testing at a electrospinning lab with one our advisors, Marjorie Austero. The parameters for the setup were as follows.
Solution: 5 wt. % polyethylene oxide in water
needle diameter: 0.5 micrometers
flow rate: 1.3 ml/hr
21 gauge needle
At the start of the test the temperature was 22.9 degrees celcius with 41% relative humidity.
Approx 5 ml of solution spun for almost five hours.
A video has been included to display the physical appearance of the setup. We now have to finalize our design to implement these components into our device.
