How SpinCare Works
SpinCare is a real medical device that uses electrospinning to create nanofiber wound dressings. A high-voltage electric field stretches a polymer solution into ultra-fine fibers (50-500nm) that land on the wound, forming a breathable protective layer.
Parameters
⚡ Voltage (kV): Controls electric field strength. Higher voltage produces thinner fibers and wider spray. 📏 Distance (cm): Gap between nozzle and wound. Greater distance = wider spray area but less dense coverage. 💧 Flow Rate (mL/h): Polymer solution delivery rate. Higher flow = faster coverage but thicker fibers. Fiber Ø: Estimated fiber diameter in nanometers — derived from voltage and flow rate.
Polymer Types
PCL: Biodegradable, slow-absorbing (months). PVA: Water-soluble, fast-absorbing. PLGA: Controlled-release drug carrier. Chitosan: Antimicrobial, from shellfish.
