  • Catechol moiety has enough reducing capability of reducing metal ions. Catechol-grafted polymer is chemically synthesized and electrospun into nanofibers as templates for metal nanostructures. The metal nanostructures are spontaneously generated on the catechol-grafted polymer nanofibers under ambient conditions.

  • 붕소(Boron)은 희소자원으로 유리, 반도체 재료, 화약 등 다양한 용도로 사용되고 있는데, 우리나라의 경우 붕소를 전량 수입에 의존하고 있으며 전 세계 붕소 매장량과 현재 추세의 생산량을 고려하면 50년 이후 지상의 붕소는 고갈될 확률이 높다. 따라서 안정적 붕소의 공급을 위해 해수 내의 붕소를 회수할 수 있는 소재 및 공정의 개발이 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수용액 중 붕소를 회수하기 위한 소재로 전기방사 후 탄소화된 폴리아크릴로니트릴(polyacrylonitrile, PAN) 나노섬유를 도입하였다. 먼저 탄소섬유 표면의 붕소 흡착 기작을 이론적으로 구현하기 위해 범밀도함수이론(density functional method) 기반의 분자모델링 작업을 수행하였는데, 계산된 에너지도(energetics)에 따르면 붕소가 탄소섬유 표면에 흡착되는 화학반응이 가능한(viable) 것으로 판단되었다. 한편 전기방사로 제작된 PAN 나노섬유를 대기 중에서 안정화를 진행한 후 아르곤(Ar) 분위기에서 탄소화하였고 붕산 수용액에 담지시켰다. SEM과 Raman 분석을 통해 각각 전기방사와 탄소화가 잘 진행되었는지 확인하였고, XPS 분석을 통해 탄소섬유 표면에 질소가 잘 도핑되었는지 여부와 붕소의 흡착 여부를 확인하였다. 결과적으로 전기방사된 PAN으로부터 제작된 탄소섬유는 해수 내 붕소 회수에 사용될 수 있는 소재로 판단된다.

  • Polymeric fibers with nanometer-scale diameters are produced by electrospinning. When the electrical forces at the surface of a polymer solution or melt overcome the surface tension then electrospinning occurs. Polyethylene oxide (PEO), Polycarbonate have been electrospun in our laboratory. Electrospun fibers are observed by optical microscopy or scanning electron microscopy. The average diameters of the electrospun fibers range from 300 nm to 30 nm when the electric field strength increasing from 1 kV/cm to 3 kV/cm. The average diameters of the electrospun fibers range from 200 nm to 30 nm when the concentration decreasing from 10 wt% to 4 wt%.

  • Recently, tremendous application utilizing electrospun nanofibers have been actively reported due to its several advantages, such as high surface to volume ratio, simple fabrication and high-throughput manufacturing. In this paper, we developed highly sensitive and consistent nanofiber humidity sensor by electrospinning. The humidity sensor was fabricated by rapid electrospinning (~2 sec) $TiO_2$/PVP/LiCl mixed solution on the micro-interdigitated electrode. In order to evaluate the humidity sensing performances, we measured current response using DC bias voltage under various relative humidity levels. The results show fast response / recovery time and marginal hysteresis as well as long-term stability. In addition, with the aid of micro-interdigitated electrode, we can reduce a total resistance of the sensor and increase the total reaction area of nanofibers across the electrodes resulting in high sensitivity and enhanced current level. Therefore, we expect that the electrospun nanofiber array for humidity sensor can be feasible and promising for diverse humidity sensing application.

  • $TiO_{2}$ electrode electrospun directly onto the substrate was developed for energy conversion device. To enhance energy conversion efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cell, electrodes should have higher surface area to absorb more dyes and higher conductivity to reduce recombination of generated electrons. $TiO_{2}$ nanofibers with higher surface areas were fabricated by annealing electrospun $TiO_{2}/PVP$ nanofibers at $500^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs in air. it was revealed that $TiO_{2}$ nanofiber electrodes is hybrid with MWNT showed higher conductivity than $TiO_{2}$ semiconductor electrode possibly due to band gap change.

  • Zein/Poria cocos extract nanofibers were prepared based on the electrospinning of aqueous solutions with different Poria cocos extract concentrations (0, 5, 10, and 15 wt.%). The electrospinning parameters, including the polymer contents, voltage, and tip-to-collector distance (TCD), were optimized for the fabrication process. The resulting electrospun materials were all characterized using field-emission scanningelectron microscopy (FE-SEM). The diameters of the electrospun zein nanofibers were found to increase when increasing the zein concentration.

  • Silk fibroin (SF) nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning and their application as an enzyme immobilization support was attempted. By varying the concentration of SF dope solution the diameter of SF nanofiber was controlled. The SF nanofiber web had high capacity of enzyme loading, which reached to $5.6\;wt\%$. The activity of immobilized a-chymotrypsin (CT) on SF nanofiber was 8 times higher than that on silk fiber and it increased as the fiber diameter decreased. Sample SF8 (ca. 205 nm fiber diameter) has excellent stability at $25^{\circ}C$ by retaining more than $90\%$ of initial activity after 24 hours, while sample SF11 (ca. 320 nm fiber diameter) shows higher stability in ethanol, retaining more than $45\%$ of initial activity. The formation of multipoint attachment between enzyme and support might increase the stability of enzyme. From these results, it is expected that the electrospun SF nanofibers can be used as an excellent support for enzyme immobilization.
