Description
Summary:The aim of this research was to investigate how addition of IL [Bmim]Cl1 into SAN2 solution in 1,2-DCE3 will influence electrospinning variables, stability of process and morphology of obtained nanofibers and find out the appropriate way of utilizing [Bmim]Cl in the electrospinning process. The solutions of pure SAN in 1,2-DCE of different concentrations (10–20%) and solutions with different concentrations (0.5–20%) of IL were spun at different variables (10–20 cm and 10–20 kV). All results were investigated by optical and SEM microscopy. Also solution parameters like electrical conductivity, surface tension and viscosity were measured and their effect on the obtained fibers morphology estimated. [Display omitted]
