dc.descriptionDevelopmental work in the field of multifunctional hybrid fibres has revealed a number of characteristics that promise great benefits to their possible use in a broad range of devices and applications including tissue scaffolds and implantable electrodes as well as the accessory energy storage devices necessary to provide power to implantable devices and smart garments. There has, therefore, been much interest and many attempts to produce lightweight, foldable and electroactive multiaxial fibres. The main aim of this thesis is to establish a wet-spinning process to develop three-dimensional coaxial and triaxial electroactive fibres. Using a coaxial wet-spinning method that takes advantage of the inherent electroactivity in a conductive core, we also aim to improve the fibres’ mechanical, biocompatibility and cell adhesion properties by using an appropriate biomaterial for the surrounding sheath, opening up the possibility for its use in many biomedical applications. Although some success has been achieved via the use of either electrospinning or coating approaches, only a few studies have reported the successful fabrication of either coaxial or triaxial fibres via novel application of wet-spinning methodology to the best knowledge of the author.en
