Fabrication of Porous Nanofibrous Mats by Dual-Nozzle Electrospinning

Abstract:

This paper presents a new method to fabricate the porous nanofibrous mats by dual-nozzle electrospinning. Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and Poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) were electrospun from two different syringes and mixed on the rotating drum to form PVA/PVP composite nanofibrous mats. SEM morphology indicated that the amount of collecting nanofibers reduced with decreasing the ratio of feeding rate between PVA and PVP. After dissolving in alcohol, the pore size of nanofibrous mats with feeding ratio of PVA/PVP at 4/1 was 1.352μm, which would be more beneficial for cells to migrate from pores.
