This review presents the application principles and geometric configurations of microfluidic spinning technology in the preparation of fibrous materials, as well as its applications in tissue engineering, drug release, flexible electronics, water collection, and surgical suturing.
Microscale fibrous materials with high surface areas and ordered structures have attracted widespread attention recently. Microfluidic spinning technology that can effectively control the sizes, structures, and material compositions of fibers has emerged as a robust approach for the fabrication of high-performance fibers. In this review, the microfluidic spinning technology used to prepare fibrous materials in terms of preparation principles and geometric configurations is presented. Additionally, several applications of fibers spun by microfluidic spinning technology, especially in tissue engineering, drug release, flexible electronics, water collection, and surgical suturing are introduced. Finally, the current challenges and perspectives of this technology are discussed.
