Electrospinning of chitosan nanofibers: Processing optimization
Abstract
In this study, the electrospinning of chitosan has been investigated. The problem of chitosan high viscosity, which limits its spinability, is resolved through the application of an alkali treatment which hydrolyzes chitosan chains and so decreases its their molecular weight. Solutions of the treated chitosan in aqueous 70–90% acetic acid produce nanofibers with appropriate quality and processing stability. Decreasing the acetic acid...
