NanoWebFun deals with the design and development of multistructured membranes based on nanofiber and nanoparticles for obtaining a multilayers structure with high technological performance for advanced textile technology. Let's think to a "sandwich" where very thin fibers, with a mean diameter of a millionth of a millimetre, can support small particles well distributed and fixed over their surface. The resulting multifunctional nanomaterials have a wide range of properties which can be designed according to the specific requirements of the target. Brethability, waterproof, selective permeability, antibacterial, antiodor activities, and the ability to oxidize volatile organic compounds are just few properties that be tailored on the developed lightweight fabrics.

Electrostatic and electro-dynamic spinning technologies represent a versatile and economic tool for manufacturing micro- and nanoscale architectures. They are driven by the application of a relatively high voltage applied to a fed solution with respect to a grounded substrate, a key difference being that the electrospinning jet can be essentially thought as a string of charged elements connected by a viscoelastic medium, where the chain entanglements are enough to stabilize the initial jet against break-up into droplets. The innovative character of NWF's technology can be depicted from three points of view:
- the rational way to combine electrostatic spinning to electro-dynamic atomization and the ability to have a controlled process for industrial production;
- the ability to obtain tailored membranes with high performances for advanced textiles-applications;
-the semi-industrial plant scale up for manufacturing.
