ICAR-CIRCOT Mumbai signed MoU for Electrospinning Technology

ICAR-CIRCOT has been working for more than a decade on electrospinning machine development and its various applications. The institute has developed different configurations of electrospinning systems and spinneret for increased nanofibers productivity. Electrospinning is a technique to produce nanofibers by applying high voltage to the conducting polymers.

M/s. Nanospin Technologies LLP is a start-up company located at Ahmedabad, Gujarat. They are working on the development of indigenous electrospinning machine for production of nanofibers.

The technology inventor, Dr. GTV Prabu along with the technology mentoring team from ICAR-CIRCOT were also present. He mention that under this MoU, ICAR-CIRCOT will provide technical guidance to produce different biopolymer-based nanofibers using the in-house developed needle electrospinning setup and value-added product using electrospinning technology.
