Nanofibers are a necessary source for fibrous materials and other useful
applications such as tissue engineering, filtration, safety fabrics, batteries for the
production of nanofibers so far. However, due to its low production rate, the wide
commercial use of electrospinning is minimal. Almost all nanofiber fabrication
techniques (e.g., melt blowing, two-component processes, phase splitting, template
synthesis, and self-assembly, etc.) are used to produce nanofibers from a limited
number of polymeric materials. Centrifugal spinning (CS) and solution blow spinning
(SBS) are advanced replacement processes to fabricate nanofibers with full
performance from various low-cost raw materials. This chapter focuses on a
comprehensive overview of CS and SBS as well as various other aspects of the
fabrication of nanofibers.
