Nylon 6 / (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5) wt. % NaCl solutions were prepared for electrospinning technique. The electrical conductivity of polymeric solution increases directly with NaCl concentration from 3.8 (mS/ cm) for pure nylon solution to 12.7 mS/cm at nylon 6/ 2.5 wt. % NaCl, and slight decreasing the viscosity and the surface tension of the solution . Increasing the polymeric solution conductivity cause more electrical charges carried by the electrospinning jet. Prepared films morphology tested by SEM and the average fibers diameters measured for each concentration. In this research, it was proved that the nanofibers film shows decreasing the average diameter by increasing NaCl concentration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
