Investigation of copolymeric polyamide-6/66 electrospinning process in ethanol-water mixture

Abstract

In this work the electrospinning of copolymeric polyamide-6/66 in ethanol-water solution is studied and the properties of the obtained fibrous materials are investigated. The principal possibility of obtaining fibrous materials in ethanol-water spinning solutions via electrospinning is shown. The optimal ratio of these solvents in spinning solution is determined. The investigated properties of the obtained fibrous materials include fiber diameters, fiber size distribution and packing density.
