The objective of this study is to investigate the morphological (scanning electron microscopicy images), thermal (differential scanning calorimetry), and electrical (conductivity) properties and to carry out compositional analysis (Fourier-transform infrared) of produced nonwoven fibrous materials adapted in biomedical applications as scaffolds. The orientation of produced nanofilaments was also investigated because it is considered as one of the essential features of a perfect tissue scaffold. Viscosity and electrical conductivity of solutions, used in the manufacturing process, were also disassembled because these properties highly influence the morphological properties of produced nanofibers. The nanofibrous scaffolds were fabricated via conventional electrospinning technique from biopolymer, synthetic polymer, and their blends. The chitosan (CS) was chosen as biopolymer and polyethylene oxide (PEO) of low molecular weight as synthetic polymer. Solutions from pure CS were unspinnable: beads instead of nanofibers were formed via spinning. The fabrication of pure PEO nanomats from solutions of 10 wt%, 15 wt%, and 20 wt% concentrations (in distilled water) turned out to be successful. The blending of composed CS solutions with PEO ones in ratios of 1:1 optimized the parameters of electrospinning process and provided the opportunity to fabricate CS/PEO blends nanofibers. The concentration of acetic acid (AA) used to dissolve CS finely spuninned the nanofibers from blended solutions and influenced the rate of crystallization of manufactured fiber mats. The concentration of PEO in solutions as well as viscosity of solutions also influenced the diameter and orientation of formed nanofibers. The beadless, highly oriented, and defect-free nanofibers from CS/PEO solutions with the highest concentration of PEO were successfully electrospinned. By varying the concentrations of AA and low molecular weight PEO, it is possible to fabricate beadless and highly oriented nanofiber scaffolds, which freely can found a place in medical applications.

Electrospinning can be used to create nanofiber mats from diverse polymers which can be used as filters etc. Depending on the spinning parameters, also nano-membranes, i.e. non-fibrous mats, can be produced as well as mixtures from both morphologies. The ratio of membrane to fibrous areas can be tailored by the distance between the high voltage electrode and substrate. Here the impact of the mat morphology on the water vapour permeability through polyacrylonitrile nanofiber mats with different membrane-like areas is shown, allowing for tailoring the permeability between 0.1 Pa m²/W and more than 10 Pa m²/W. In this way it is possible to create the finest filters as well as nearly impenetrable thin membranes with the same technology.

Elektroprzędzenie można stosować do tworzenia mat z nanowłókien z różnorodnych polimerów, które mogą być stosowane jako filtry itp. W zależności od parametrów przędzenia, można wytwarzać także nanobłonki, tj. maty niewłókniste, jak również ich hybrydy. Stosunek powierzchni membrany do części włóknistej może być regulowany przez odległość między elektrodą wysokiego napięcia a podłożem. W pracy pokazano wpływ morfologii maty na przepuszczalność pary wodnej poprzez poliakrylonitrylowe maty z nanowłókien z obszarami membranopodobnymi, pozwalając dostosować przepuszczalność między 0,1 Pa·m²/W i ponad 10 Pa·m²/W. Dzięki temu sposobowi możliwe jest tworzenie najlepszych filtrów, a także prawie nieprzeniknionych cienkich membran z zastosowaniem tej samej technologii.
