Dipole Materials

Dipole Materials specializes in developing sustainable textile solutions through an innovative electrospinning process. Their core technology involves using high-voltage forces to extract nanofibers from a polymer solution, creating a mat of biodegradable material. This mat can then be spun and woven into garments. Dipole Materials employs a core-shell electrospinning technique, where polycaprolactone, a durable yet biodegradable polymer with a melting point of 60°C, forms the core, while cellulose acetate acts as the external shell. The resulting material is highly durable, capable of withstanding high-temperature wash cycles, and eventually degrades into harmless byproducts in soil or water. This innovative approach aims to address the issue of microfiber pollution from textiles, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional textile manufacturing processes.
