| Abstract | Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) electrospun nanofibres with different loading of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) were successfully prepared using electrospinning method. PAN powder was dissolved in dimethylformamide and the solution was electrospun under constant electrospinning parameters. The morphological structure and average fibre diameter of the nanofibres were examined using electron scanning microscopy. It was found that the solution with a higher content of MWCNT produced fibres with thicker fibre diameter. It was also observed that the surfaces of the fibres were rougher compared to control fibres. The results suggest that the inclusion of MWCNT reduced the electrospinnability of the PAN polymer solution. |
