Characterization and antibacterial properties of Ag NPs loaded nylon-6 nanocomposite prepared by one-step electrospinning process

Fabrication of polyamide-6 fiber of high SO3H content surface through electrospinning

“…HCOOK could increased conductivity of solution, and then thickened ES fibers. Pants [27] found that standing time could influence diameters of Ag/PA6 hybrid nanofibers in pretreatment of blend solution of AgNO 3 /nylon-6 before electrospinning. Fiber diameter increased with reduction of standing duration and decreased with elongation of standing duration.…”

Preparation and photocatalytic activity of fly ash incorporated TiO2 nanofibers for effective removal of organic pollutants

“…Semiconductor photocatalysis is one of the advanced physiochemical process applicable in the photodegradation of environmental organic pollutants and toxics [2][3][4]. Electrospinning has attracted much attention as a simple and versatile technique capable of generating continuous nanofibers not only from different varieties of polymers [5], but also from inorganic and hybrid (organic-inorganic) compounds which can be used for environmental applications [6,7]. Using this technique, different types of nanostructures with larger surface area per unit mass and small pore size have been investigated as effective photocatalyst [8].…”

Fabrication and durable antibacterial properties of electrospun chitosan nanofibers with silver nanoparticles

“…In order to attain hybrid NFs containing AgNPs, reduction of Ag ion to AgNPs has to Page 4 of 30 A c c e p t e d M a n u s c r i p t be carried out before or after elelctrospinning [19,20], which can be accomplished by irradiation, thermal or chemical reduction process [21]. Among these treatment method, electron beam irradiation (EBI) is considered as an efficient method for large-scale synthesis of AgNPs [22], and has more advantages over others, including easy operation, inexpensive, short irradiation time, and absence of chemical residues after irradiated.…”
