Preparation of PVP/PLLA Ultrafine Blend Fibers by Electrospinning
The Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) / Poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) ultrafine blend fibers have been prepared for the first time by electrospinning. Trichloromethane was found to be the co-solvent for electrospinning. The PVP/PLLA blend solutions in various ratios were studied for electrospinning into ultrafine fibers. The morphology of the fibers was shown by scanning electron microscope (SEM). It wa...
متن کاملRelease of antibiotics from electrospun bicomponent fibers
Biocompatible nanofibers that are capable of adapting to the physiological conditions of the human body have become increasingly important for clinical applications in recent years. Electrospun fiber mats offer particular advantages due to their large surface area and their sorption/release properties. If loaded with drugs, delivery properties can be tailored to a specific release rate. This re...
متن کاملElectrospun Quaternized Chitosan Fibers for Virus Removal from Drinking Water
Membrane filtration has become an accepted technology for the removal of pathogens from drinking water. Viruses, known to contaminate water supplies, are too small to be removed by a size-exclusion mechanism without a large energy penalty. Thus, functionalized electrospun membranes that can adsorb viruses have drawn our interest. We chose a quaternized chitosan derivative (HTCC) which carries a...
متن کاملElectrospinning of uniform polystyrene fibers: The effect of solvent conductivity
By means of the electrospinning technique, micronand nanofibers can be obtained from polymer solutions under a very high electrical field. A special challenge is to produce bead-free uniform fibers since any minor changes in the electrospinning parameters such as slight variations in the polymer solutions and/or electrospinning experimental parameters may result in significant variations in the...
