Abstract

Fiber membranes from waste Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (w-ABS)/Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) has been successfully made using an electrospinning method. The precursor solutions were prepared using DMAc solvents at a concentration of 30 wt%. We varied the w-ABS:PVP ratio of 3:0, 2.9:0.1, 2.5:0.5, and 2:1. A digital optical microscope observed the morphology of the fabricated fiber membranes while a contact angle meter determined their wettability. The results showed that the morphology of the fibers changed with the ratio of w-ABS:PVP. Consequently, the variation of w-ABS:PVP ratio caused a significant effect to the value of membranes contact angle.
