Manufacturing Techniques and Property Evaluations of PVA/Gelatin Electrospinning Nanofiber Membranes

Abstract:

This study combines polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and gelatin with various ratios and administers different voltages to make PVA/gelatin electrospinning nanofiber membranes. The PVA/gelatin mixtures are measured for their viscosity and conductivity, followed by being electrospun into nanofiber membranes. The scanning electron microscope and an FT-IR are used to evaluate the membranes. The test results show that the nanofiber membranes have a complete fiber formation with the voltage being 20 kV and the PVA/gelatin ratio being 8/2. In addition, an increase in the viscosity of the PVA/gelatin mixture leads to the formation of beads.
