Abstract
Described herein are apparatuses and methods of creating fibers, such as microfibers and nanofibers, that are composed of saccharides. The methods discussed herein employ centrifugal forces to transform saccharide material into fibers. Apparatuses that may be used to create saccharide fibers are also described. Fiber producing devices with features that enhance fiber production and adaptability to different types of fiber are described.
