Abstract
PVA nanofibers are PVA solution-based nanofibers. PVA solution is a synthetic polymer that is non-toxic, soluble in air, and has excellent thermal, gas permeability, and chemical resistance qualities. Nanofibers were synthesized using PVA (Polyvinyl alcohol) solutions at concentrations of 8%, 10%, and 12%. The electrospinning method is used in this investigation, with input voltages of 17 kV and 20 kV, needle distances of 7 cm, 10 cm, and 15 cm from the collector, and a flow rate of 5 ml/hour for each concentration. An optical microscope was used to examine the nanofiber synthesis results in order to assess the morphology and diameter of the fiber. PVA nanofiber with the best fiber from electrospinning has a diameter of 1.06 μm and homogeneous fiber without beads is a synthesized nanofiber with a variation of 10% PVA solution concentration, 15 cm distance from the syringe needle to drum collector, and 20 kV voltage.
