What is Continuous Polymer Nanofiber Yarns Prepared by Self-bundling Electrospinning Method about?

Continuous polymer nanofiber yarns were manufactured by self-bundling electrospinning method. Compared with typical electrospinning setup, the special difference in this method was that a grounded needle tip was used to induce the self-bundling of polymer nanofibers at the beginning of electrospinning process. Four kinds of polymer self-bundling yarns, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and poly(m-phenylene isophthalamide) (PMIA), were prepared successfully by using this self-bundling electrospinning method. Good alignment of polymer nanofibers in self-bundled yarns was confirmed by SEM observation. It was found out that the conductivity of the polymer solution was crucial to achieve stably continuous selfbundled fiber yarns. A possible mechanism for the self-bundling formation of align nanofiber yarn was proposed.
