Abstract

Electrospinning is a relatively simple, versatile, and cost-effective technique to produce nanofibers. Majority
of studies are focused on electrospinning of synthetic polymers. However, electrospinning of natural polymers
is emerging as these polymers are generally better candidates for biomedical engineering application
due to their outstanding biodegradation and biocompatibility properties. Gelatin is highly hydrophilic polymer
with low cost, low immunogenicity, high biocompatibility, high biodegradability, and good cell-adhesive
structure that is widely in industry and research projects. The aforementioned properties make gelatin a desir
able candidate for the development of biomaterials for various applications. The electrospinning method was
employed for production of gelatin nanofibers. The morphology of the nanofibers was characterized using
scanning electron microscope (SEM). The miscibility of blend was determined using SEM and Fourier transform
infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The optimum condition
for production of bead-less nanofibers with the fiber diameter in the range of 80 - 380 nm was determined.
