    摘要: The disclosed methods and apparatus improve the fabrication of solid fibers and microstructures. In many embodiments, the fabrication is from gaseous, solid, semi-solid, liquid, critical, and supercritical mixtures using one or more low molar mass precursor(s), in combination with one or more high molar mass precursor(s). The methods and systems generally employ the thermal diffusion/Soret effect to concentrate the low molar mass precursor at a reaction zone, where the presence of the high molar mass precursor contributes to this concentration, and may also contribute to the reaction and insulate the reaction zone, thereby achieving higher fiber growth rates and/or reduced energy/heat expenditures together with reduced homogeneous nucleation. In some embodiments, the invention also relates to the permanent or semi-permanent recording and/or reading of information on or within fabricated fibers and microstructures. In some embodiments, the invention also relates to the fabrication of certain functionally-shaped fibers and microstructures. In some embodiments, the invention may also utilize laser beam profiling to enhance fiber and microstructure fabrication.

    摘要: A deodorant and antibacterial copper nanofiber yarn and a manufacturing method thereof are provided, the manufacturing method including: providing a raw material, including a polyblend slurry, a nano-metal solution, a plurality of inorganic particles, and a plurality of TPU rubber particles; stirring the raw material into a mixed material; making second metal contact the first metal ion fiber to cause the first metal ion to undergo a reduction reaction to obtain a copper nanofiber yarn; drying the mixed material; performing hot-melt spinning on the mixed material, the plurality of TPU rubber particles, after being hot-melted, being coated on an outer peripheral side of the spun wire to form a first-phase wire; forcibly cooling the first-phase wire; stretching the first-phase wire; air-cooling the first-phase wire to form a second-phase wire; and collecting the second-phase wire to make the wire into a finished deodorant and antibacterial copper nanofiber yarn.
