Abstract

Electrospinning is the process of nanofiber production from a polymer solution under electrostatic force. Due to the wide range of its application possibilities, the process has become very popular since it enables the production of materials with specific physical and chemical characteristics. The study presents a short overview of the potentially harmful effects of nanoparticles on human health and gives a detailed description of the electrospinning apparatus and safety measures, as well as of the personal protective equipment for the laboratory worker.

Keywords
