Evolution of self-generating porous microstructures in polyacrylonitrile-cellulose acetate blend fibres

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN), cellulose acetate (CA) and polyacrylonitrile - cellulose acetate (PAN-CA) fibres were formed in single and binary solvents which were subjected to gyration under pressure. Fibres in the diameter range 200–2000 nm were generated using a rotating speed of 36,000 rpm and a work...
