  • Electrospun fibers of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were successfully prepared and applied as drug carriers for transdermal drug delivery system. Sodium Salicylate (SS) was the model drug and it was incorporated in the PVA fibers by adding 20 % of SS in a PVA solution prior to electrospinning. Electrospinning of SS-containing PVA solution resulted in the formation of beaded fibers. In order to control the rate of SS release and decrease water solubility of PVA, the SS-loaded electrospun PVA mat was cross-linked by either glutaraldehyde or glyoxal vapor. The morphology, thermal behavior, swelling behavior, release characteristic, kinetics of drug release and also toxicity of the cross-linked sample were investigated.

  • 전기방사는 휘발성 용매에 녹아있는 다양한 물질들을 마이크로 크기의 섬유로 제조하는데 사용되고 있다. 이번 연구에서는 물을 용매로 사용하여 pullulan을 전기 방사하였다. 부드러운 섬유를 얻기 위하여 pullulan 농도와 전압을 최적의 조건으로 설정하였다. Pullulan 농도는 pullulan 용액의 점도와 표면 장력에 큰 영향을 받는다. Bead 형태의 pullulan 전기방사 섬유는 5 wt%이하의 농도에서 얻어진다. Pullulan 용액의 농도가 10 wt%로 유지되고, 전압이 15 kV에 고정되었을 때, pullulan 섬유의 평균 직경은 200 nm로 감소하였다. Pullulan electrospun 섬유는 높은 용해도, 유연성, 부드러움과 강한 접착성을 보여준다.

  • 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%.

  • 본 연구에서는 바이오 매스기반의 셀룰로오스 나노크리스탈(cellulose nanocrystals, 이하 CNC)과 PLA (polylactic acid, 이하 PLA)를 tetrahydrofuran (THF)에 용해시킨 서스펜션으로부터 PLA 및 PLA/CNC 나노섬유 복합재 매트를 상온에서 전기방사법으로 제작하였다. PLA 및 PLA/CNC 나노복합재 매트의 형상은 섬유가 긴축을 따라 3차원 구조의 표면으로 정렬된 것으로 관찰되었다. PLA 및 PLA/CNC 나노섬유 복합재 매트의 인장강도는 CNC 함량이 증가할수록 감소하였는데, 이는 전기방사된 섬유 속에 형성된 비드와 PLA와 CNC의 낮은 계면접착력 때문으로 기인된다. PLA/CNC 복합재 매트를 구성하는 섬유의 평균 지름 크기는 CNC의 함량이 증가할수록 작아졌다. 한편 PLA/CNC 나노섬유 복합재 매트의 열안정성은 CNC의 함량이 증가할수록 증가하는 것을 보였다.

  • To investigate the effects of co-solvents on the morphology of nano-scale zein materials, zein solutions were electrospun with different co-solvent ratios of EtOH/$H_2O$. Different zein solution concentrations were used to study the effects of the zein content on the electrospun materials. The resulting electrospun materials were all characterized using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The diameters of the electrospun nanoparticles and nanofibers were found to increase when increasing the EtOH ratio at certain zein concentrations. Furthermore, increasing the zein content changed the morphology of the electrospun materials from nanoparticles to nanofibers.

  • 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. Polycarbonate has been electrospun. Electrospun fibers are observed by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The surface morphology of e-spun fiber has been studied by many variables that are involved in different polymer concentrations, solvent mixing ratios and ambient parameters. The average diameters of the electrospun fibers range from 200 nm to 4,570 nm when the PC concentration is decreasing from 15.5\;wt{\%}\;to\;25\;wt{\%}.$ The higher concentration of the polymer solution makes the fibers thicker due to preventing the fiber stretching. With respect evaporation effects, the solvent mixing ratios cause significant changes of the fiber size distribution. As a matter of fact the fiber diameter steadily increases with increasing amount of DMF until the solvent mixture is at THF:DMF ratio of 60:40.

  • In order to improve the thermal stability of PAN-based electrospun fibers, AP-PER-MEL and $TiO_2$ were added in to the fibers as additives. The polymer composite with uniformly mixed additional agents was obtained. In case of non-treated sample, the fibers were burn off completely with high rate within $620^{\circ}C$. But in case of treated samples (EF-M and EF-MT), it is sure that the thermal stability was improved by studying TGA data and ISO flammability test about 20 and 30%, respectively. A synergy effect of adding two kinds of agents (AP-PER-MEL and $TiO_2$) into PAN-based electrospun fibers was confirmed. Through SEM images, it is confirmed that the fiber shape can be kept even after addition of agents (AP-PER-MEL and $TiO_2$). Finally the thermal stability of fibers was largely developed with keeping the nature of PAN-based fibers effectively.

  • In this study, porous electrospun carbon fibers were prepared by electrospinning with PAN and $MgCl_2$, as a MgO precursor. MgO was selected as a substrate because of its chemical and thermal stability, no reaction with carbon, and ease of removal after carbonization by dissolving out in acidic solutions. $MgCl_2$ was mixed with polyacrylonitrile (PAN) solution as a precursor of MgO with various weight ratios of $MgCl_2$/PAN. The average diameter of porous electrospun carbon fibers increased from 1.3 to 3 ${\mu}m$, as the $MgCl_2$ to PAN weight ratio increased. During the stabilization step, $MgCl_2$ was hydrolyzed to MgOHCl by heat treatment. At elevated temperature of 823 K for carbonization step, MgOHCl was decomposed to MgO. Specific surface area and pore structure of prepared electrospun carbon fibers were decided by weight ratio of $MgCl_2$/PAN. The amount of hydrogen storage increased with increase of specific surface area and micropore volume of prepared electrospun carbon fibers.
