Tunable Fabrication of Electrospun Polyvinyl Alcohol Nanofibrous Membrances for Effective Air Filtration

Abstract:

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibrous membrances for effective air filtration were fabricated by electrospinning. Tunable fiber morphologies can be formed by facilely regulating the solution concentration and the applied voltage, and their effect on filtration performance of the PVA membrances were also investigeted. Results show that the PVA membrance exhibits high filtration efficiency of 97.1% and low pressure drop of 113 Pa when the PVA concentration is 8 wt% and the applied voltage is 15 kV with a tip-to-collector distance of 15 cm and a feed rate of 1 ml/h.
