Abstract:
The microfluidic production of Janus/Hecate polymer microfibers with well-defined interfaces from miscible phases is reported. The process offers tunability of the width and composition of each part of the fibers by controlling the flow rate and nature of the monomers in a single step. The enhanced performances of the fibers are outlined for the simultaneous removal of dyes of opposite charges using amphoteric Janus fibers.
