I. Introduction
Electrospinning technology, as an advanced technique for preparing nanofibers, has attracted widespread attention and application in the fields of materials science, biomedical science, energy, and others in recent years. As the core component of electrospinning equipment, the performance of the high voltage power supply directly affects the stability of the electrospinning process and the quality of the fibers. Therefore, innovative research and application of high voltage power supplies for electrospinning are of great significance.
II. Overview of Electrospinning Technology
Electrospinning is a technique that uses high voltage electric field force to stretch polymer solutions or melts into nanoscale fibers. During the electrospinning process, the high voltage provided by the power supply forms a strong electric field between the spinneret and the receiving device. Under the action of the electric field force, the polymer solution or melt overcomes the surface tension, forms a Taylor cone, and ultimately stretches into nanofibers. This technology has the advantages of simple operation, low cost, and adjustable fiber diameter, so it has broad application prospects in many fields.
III. Innovative Requirements for Electrospinning High Voltage Power Supplies
With the continuous development of electrospinning technology, the performance requirements for high voltage power supplies are also increasing. Traditional high voltage power supplies have problems such as unstable output voltage, large ripple coefficient, and serious electromagnetic interference, which seriously affect the stability of the electrospating process and the quality of the fibers. Therefore, developing high voltage power supplies with high performance, high stability, low ripple, and low electromagnetic interference has become a hot topic in current research.
