Abstract

This chapter discusses the scope of the study; research concepts and hypotheses; aims and objectives; and contribution of the research. In this study, nanofibres were fabricated by two melt processes: melt electrospinning and meltblowing. The nanofibres fabricated by these processes were characterised by various techniques to understand the fibre morphology, thermal, crystalline and mechanical properties.
