Bio-nanofiber Lab
We are interested in producing nano/micro fiber-based fabrics.
Welcome to Xu lab
Melt Electrowriting
Melt electrowriting (MEW) is an advanced 3D printing technology to produce high-resolution scaffolds. We own eight different MEW printers to print high-performance fabrics with complex structures.
Braiding
We have a home-made braider to braid bioresorbable flow-diverting stents. Medical-grade poly(L-lactic acid) fibers are produced by melt spinning for the braiding.
Electro-centrifugal spinning
Electro-centrifugal spinning combines the strengths of electrospinning and centrifugal spinning, being capable of producing high-quality and large numbers of nano/micro-scale fibers.
Electrospinning
We develop an electrospinning-based coating system to coat a very thin layer on a monofilament to tune the mechanical properties and degradation periods of the filaments.
How to join us
You have four times to join us every year!
The dept. of Biobased Materials Science (BBM) is a graduate school that is enrolling master and PhD students for three times per year. In addition, you can also choose the self-recommendation entrance examination.
