TY - JOUR TI - Effect of concentration of metal inorganic salt on fiber diameter in electrospinning process: Mathematical model and experimental verification AU - He Chun-Hui AU - Liu Peng AU - Liu Hong-Yan JN - Thermal Science PY - 2018 VL - 22 IS - 6 SP - 2565 EP - 2570 PT - Article AB - Electrospinning is used to produce polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofibers under various the ferric chloride (FeCl3) contents. The effect of FeCl3 concentration on fiber diameter is investigated theoretically and experimentally. A critical value of the concentration is found, below which fiber diameter decreases with its concentration, and an opposite prediction is observed when the concentration is larger than the critical value.
