Abstract
It has been a challenge to prepared polyether block amide (PEBA) fibrous membrane via solution electrospinning. The only few reported methods though involved hazardous solvents and surfactants which were against the principle of green chemistry. In this work, uniform fibrous membrane of PEBA was successfully fabricated by solution electrospinning with a bio-based solvent dihydrolevoglucosenone (Cyrene). To further improve the mechanical strength and adsorption performance of the PEBA membrane, a hierarchical magnesium hydrogen phosphate (MgHPO4·1.2H2O, MHP) was synthesized to blend evenly into the PEBA matrix. A Janus MHP/PEBA membrane with one side of hydrophobic surface and the other side of hydrophilic surface was subsequently prepared, which exhibited fast adsorption, high capacity, good selectivity and reusability towards ibuprofen, acetaminophen, carbamazepine and triclosan. In addition, the Janus membrane showed high removal efficiency of the above contaminants in secondary wastewater effluent with good long term stability. It demonstrated that this Janus MHP/PEBA membrane had a good potential in practical wastewater treatment.

Abstract
As an emerging 3D printing technique, melt electrospinning writing (MEW) has been used to fabricate scaffolds with controllable structure and good mechanical strength for bone regeneration. However, how to further improve MEW scaffolds with nanoscale extracellular matrix (ECM) mimic structure and bioactivity is still challenging. In this study, we proposed a simple composite process by combining MEW and solution electrospinning (SE) to fabricate a micro/nano hierarchical scaffold for bone tissue engineering. The morphological results confirmed the hierarchical structure with both well-defined MEW microfibrous grid structure and SE random nanofiber morphology. The addition of gelatin nanofibers turned the scaffolds to be hydrophilic, and led to a slight enhancement of mechanical strength. Compared with PCL MEW scaffolds, higher cell adhesion efficiency, improved cell proliferation and higher osteoinductive ability were achieved for the MEW/SE composite scaffolds. Finally, multilayer composite scaffolds were fabricated by alternately stacking of MEW layer and SE layer and used to assess the effect on cell ingrowth in the scaffolds. The results showed that gelatin nanofibers did not inhibit cell penetration, but promoted the three-dimensional growth of bone cells. Thus, the strategy of the combined use of MEW and SE is a potential method to fabricate micro/nano hierarchical scaffolds to improve bone regeneration.

Abstract
Curcumin-loaded poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) fibres prepared by melt and solution electrospinning methods were both fabricated to investigate their difference in characterization and drug release behaviour. The increasing curcumin content did not influence the morphologies of melt electrospun fibre, but enhanced the range of diameter distribution of solution electrospun fibre owing to the curcumin aggregates in the spinning solution which disturbed the stability of jet. Moreover, a large amount of curcumin with amorphous state could be loaded in the melt electrospun fibre. Whereas the limited solubility of curcumin in the solvent led to the drug aggregates dispersing within the solution electrospun fibre. In addition, the melt electrospun fibres had low drug release rate without burst release on the profiles due to the high crystallinity in the fibre, but high drug release rate and burst release occurred on the release profiles of the solution electrospun fibres because of their low crystallinity, porous structure and roughness surface.
