Morphology and Mechanical Properties of Electrospun Silk Fibroin/Cellulose Acetate Blend Nanofibers

摘要

Pure silk fibroin (SF), pure cellulose acetate (CA) and their blend nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning and their morphology and mechanical properties were investigated. It was found that electrospun SF/CA blends were modified with different content of CA in electrospun fibers. The electrospun SF/CA blend nanofibers with the content of CA less than 10% were fine and uniform. Their mechanical properties varied with different content of CA in electrospun fibers. Electrospinning of SF/CA blends give the possibility of producing new materials for potential filter.
