Abstract
Fibrous membranes of aligned poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) fibers have been made through electrospinning. A high-speed rotating drum was used as the fiber collector while the electric field was manipulated by using five knife-edged auxiliary electrodes. It was found that a high drum rotating speed of 3000 rpm could lead to a nearly perfect alignment of PHBV fibers during electrospinning. Multilayered fibrous structures with...
