Abstract
How to produce and fabricate polyvinyl alcohol–chitosan (PVA/CS) electrospun nanofibers to investigate the diameter and morphology of the fibers produced by experimental design software was investigated. The effects of voltage (14.32–17.05 kV), feed rate (0.2–2 ml/min), and PVA/CS mixing ratio (50–100 wt%) were studied to obtain optimal electrospinning conditions to achieve the minimum diameter and number of beads. Central Composite Design (CCD) was used to investigate and optimize the processing factors of PVA/CS nanofiber production. The nanofibers were examined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Nanofibers with diameters ranging from 40 to 250 nm were obtained. The presence of PVA/CS and functional compounds related to both substances in the resulting infrared spectra was confirmed. The results of CCD showed the effect of each variable on the diameter and quality of the fibers and finally suggested the optimal conditions.
