Abstract:

Poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)/poly (L-lactide) (PLLA)/nanohydroxyapatite (n-HA) composite Ultrafine Fibers with diameter of 610 ~ 830 nm were prepared by electro-spinning. The surface morphology was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effect of the process of prepareing spinning solutions, the constituent of spinning solutions, the concentration of PHB/PLLA/ n-HA blends spinning solutions and the collection distance on the surface morphology of fibers were discussed. The results indicated that n-HA mixing with solvent prior to other materimals for electrospingning could prepare the homogeneity of the spinning mixture. In all of the spinning conditions investigated ,When using chloroform (CF) /N, N-dimethyl formamide (DMF ) mixture as spinning solvent , PHB/PLLA/HA composite ultrafine fibers were not fabricated by electro-spinning, but chloroform can do. The average diameter of as-spun fibers increased with increasing concentration of PHB/PLLA/HA blends spinning solutions and collection distance.
