Core/shell nonwovens in which enzyme is immobilized (Dr. Mizuno’s laboratory at Nagoya Institute of Technologies)
The hydrophilic copolymer of acrylamide (AM) and diacetone acrylamide (DAAM), poly(AM/DAAM),was used as the base material to obtain the core unit of nanofibers. During electrospinning,poly(AM/DAAM) was crosslinked with the bifunctional crosslinker ad≫ more
Can also be used for mass production machines!! Multiple Jet Spinneret (MJS)
The Multi Jet Spinneret (MJS) introduced this time is a spinneret that has multiple holes in the nozzle and ejects the solution from them.Wider nanofiber sheets can be created compared to standard clip spinnerets.Not only as a laboratory machine, but≫ more
Possible to make an aligned sheet!! Drum collector.
By setting a 200mm-wide and 200mm-diameter drum collector for high speed rotation, we electrospun aligned nanofiber sheets like this video.Aligned nanofibers are spun with the fibers aligned in a certain direction, and it will be a sheet with metalli≫ more
Joining the Society of Fiber Science and Technology
It’s been a long time since we joined the Society of Fiber Science and Technology last time. This time the exhibition is held at Tower Hall Funabori in Edogawa, Tokyo. Two new members of the staff are doing their best while being tenderly watched by ≫ more
The beginner keeps learning well is our new family member!!
She always keeps happy smile and her best. ‘ I’m into nanofiber technology’she says. Name: Suzuyo Seto Birthplace: Itoshima, Fukuoka, Japan Hobby: Editing videos, Walking my dog Comment: Hello everyone, I’m Suzuyo Seto from MECC compan≫ more
Spinning Gelatin!
We electrospun Gelatin (derived from pig) into nanofiber sheets. Gelatin has biodegradability and biocompatibility, and is used for a variety of medical field such as cell culture medium, wound dressing material, and wound healing.

Part 1: Mobile Spinneret [Demonstration]
February 24, 2022 Hi, everybody! My name is Toshiyuki Fukuma at Sales Department. I am demonstrating the mobile spinneret for customers all over Japan. It is much smaller than existing equipment and everyone is surprised to see me spinning fi≫ more
Development of nanofibers for the balloon therapy
The tube in the photo is a sample of a balloon to expand blood vessels for treatment of heart deseases and so on, which is called the Balloon Therapy. One of our customers in U.S. is developin≫ more
