Abstract
In the study, firstly, preliminary experiments were carried out to determine the optimum electrospinning process parameters for the production of nanofiber membranes from these PA6/CA polymer mixtures. Then, solutions were prepared from these polymer mixtures and nanofiber membranes were produced from these prepared solutions by electrospinning method. Finally; density, electrical conductivity and viscosity measurements of PA6/CA solutions and FTIR, SEM, thickness and strength tests of nanofiber membranes were performed. In addition, the average nanofiber diameters of membranes were calculated. It has been determined that the average diameter of the nanofibers in the structure of membranes produced by electrospinning method is between 150 – 300 nm.
