Description
The production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) nanofibers by electrospinning is a modern and efficient method that uses the electric field for the production of fine fibers, allowing the fabrication of porous and versatile structures called scaffolds, organized by nanofiber units. This method has aroused great interest in the materials industry due to the unique properties they offer, such as their high mechanical strength and their potential applicability in fields such as regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. In this study, we propose an innovative approach using electrospinning for the fabrication of PET nanofibers. During the development of this project, we have created the initial solution necessary for the production of recycled PET nanofibers using the electrospinning technique. For this purpose, we have used the following materials: recycled PET from bottles and a solution composed of CHCl₃ and C₂HF₃O₂ acid. Once manufactured, the nanofibers exhibited a uniform and homogeneous structure, characterized by high porosity and excellent interconnection between the fibers. This reflects the high quality of the production process and the desired properties for various advanced uses. The processing of PET nanofibers by electrospinning has proven to be an efficient and promising method. The results obtained in this study indicate that it is possible to produce high quality nanofibers using recycled PET, which not only retains the desired mechanical and structural properties, but also promotes sustainable practices in the materials industry.
