Electrospinning of cyclodextrin functionalized polyethylene oxide (PEO) nanofibers
By means of the electrospinning technique we have successfully synthesized cyclodextrin (CD) functionalized polyethylene oxide (PEO) nanofibers (PEO/CD) with the ultimate goal to develop functional nanowebs. Three different types of CDs; a-CD, b-CD and c-CD are incorporated individually in electrospun PEO nanofibers. The aqueous solutions containing different amount of PEO (3%, 3.5% and 4% (w/v...
متن کاملCharacterization of Chitosan-poly (Ethylene Oxide) Blends as Haemodialysis Membrane
Blend membranes of chitosan and poly (ethylene oxide) with different molecular weights of 100,000 and 600,000 were prepared by the solution cast technique. The Chitosan-PEO blend membranes were produced to study their water adsorptions capacity and characteristics of the haemodialysis membrane application. An increase in the water adsorption capacity of chitosan-PEO blend membranes compared to ...
متن کاملElectrospinning and stabilization of chitosan nanofiber mats
Chitosan is of special interest for biotechnological and medical applications due to its antibacterial, antifungal and other intrinsic physical and chemical properties. The biopolymer can, e.g., be used for biotechnological purposes, as a filter medium, in medical products, etc. In all these applications, the inner surface should be maximized to increase the contact area with the filtered mediu...
متن کاملPreparation of Pure and Stable Chitosan Nanofibers by Electrospinning in the Presence of Poly(ethylene oxide)
Electrospinning was employed to obtain chitosan nanofibers from blends of chitosans (CS) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). Blends of chitosan (MW (weight-average molecular weight) = 102 kg/mol) and PEO (M (molecular weight) = 1000 kg/mol) were selected to optimize the electrospinning process parameters. The PEO powder was solubilized into chitosan solution at different weight ratios in 0.5 M acet...
متن کاملFabrication of Chitosan-Polyethylene Oxide Electrospun Nanofibrous Mats Containing Green Tea Extract
Novel electrospun nanofibrous CS-PEO nerve conduits containing 0, 2.5 and 5% of green tea methanolic extract were developed and characterized by FE-SEM, FT-IR, TGA/DSC as well as tensile strength analysis. The FE-SEM images revealed that all of the nanofibers had an average diameter of ∼80nm. The swelling degree was decreased by increasing the GT amount from 2.5 to 5% and this might be attribut...
