Influence of Chitosan on Electrospun PVA Nanofiber Mat

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of chitosan on the morphology of electropun PVA nanofibers and their related properties is discussed, where the presence of additional OH-groups from chitosa and larger surface area of the net structure for hydrogen bonding enhance the hydrophilicity and mechanical properties of the nanofiber mat as compare to pure PVA which are evaluated through water contact angle and tensile testing respectively.
