Development of an Electrospun Nanofibrous Web with Hyaluronic Acid
Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2017, Vol 25, Issue 5
Abstract
Textile materials with an electrospun nanofibrous web can be used fo ar wide range of applications, including medicine and health care. In this research, polyamide-6 and hyaluronic acid were used for the development of a nanofibrous web via electrospinning. Hyaluronic acid is one of the most interesting ingredients used in skin care. It is very important that the electrospun polyamide-6 nanofibrous structure binds nanoparticles of hyaluronic acid not covering the surface of these particles. The main goal of this work was to develop an electrospun nanofibrous polyamide-6 web with hyaluronic acid which can be used for health care and/or cosmetology A. polyamide-6 nanofibrous web with hyaluronic acid was successfully developed via electrospinning. The presence of hyaluronic acid in the nanoweb was confirmed after web treatment with hot (95%) water. Hyaluronic acid was transported from the spinning solution to the electrospun web, was not isolated from the environment by polyamide-6, and could interact with human skin.

LMPP Effects on Morphology, Crystallization, Thermal and Mechanical Properties of iPP/LMPP Blend Fibres
The thermal properties and morphological characterisation of isotactic polypropylene (iPP) homopolymer and its blends with low molecular low modulus polypropylene (LMPP) were studied. Firstly blends were prepared with va...
Unidirectional Torsion Properties of Single Silk Fibre
The unidirectional torsion properties of silk fibre were investigated on a purpose-built single fibre torsion tester. The torsional fracture angle and the number of cycles of torsion at breaking were recorded, and the ef...
Surface Roughness Assessment of Woven Fabrics Using Fringe Projection Moiré Techniques
In this paper, a new approach is proposed for characterizing the surface roughness of woven fabrics. This approach is based on the fringe projection moiré techniques and analysis of the moiré pattern, which is caused by...
