Property Research of Silk Fibroin Nanofibers by Electrospinning Dissolved in CaCl2-Formid Acid
Advanced Materials Research(2015)
Abstract
In this paper, property research of silk fibroin nanofibers by electrospinning dissolved in CaCl2-Formid Acid was discussed. The dissolve process, morphology, structure and mechanical properties of fibers were studied. It showed that more dissolution time was needed to dissolve silk with 1% CaCl2. The diameters of silk fibroin nanofibers decreased with the CaCl2 contents increased and the surface of 6%5% fibers was more uniform and smooth. After ethanol treatment, strong peak at 1628cm-1, 1517cm-1 and 1231cm-1 was corresponding to β-sheet. It was important to discover that silk fibroin was weakly destroyed in CaCl2-FA solvent system, and the regenerated silk fibroin nanofibers had better mechanical properties. The stress of 6%5% fibers was nearly 3 times to traditional way. With different content of CaCl2, the stress of 6%5% fibers was nearly 2 times to 6%1% fibers.
