Fabrication of Polyvinylpyrrolidone Nanofibers with Green Solvents

Abstract

In this study, biocompatible Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) nanofibers were produced with ultra-pure water, rose water, lavender water, ethanol, acetone and acetic acid with green electrospinning approach. Polymer solutions were characterized with conductivity, surface tension and viscosity measurements. Morphological analyzes were carried out with Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Conductivity, surface tension and viscosity results of PVP/ ultra-pure water, rose water and lavender water solutions were similar. On the other hand, PVP/acetic acid solution has the highest viscosity and lowest conductivity values and PVP/ethanol solution has got the lowest surface tension. In addition; the lowest average fiber diameters were obtained from ultra-pure water, rose water and lavender water solvents but there are some beads on the nanofiber structure. The smoothest nanofibers without beads were obtained from PVP/ethanol but it was observed that average fiber diameter is about 724 nm higher than other PVP solutions. Therefore, ethanol was chosen as a co-solvent to enhance fiber morphology for second part of study. Moreover; the relation between solution conductivity, nanofiber diameter and web diameter were determined and it was found that nanofibrous surface diameter increases and fiber diameter decreases with the increase of solution conductivity.
