  Abstract

with atmospheric pressure plasma. Conductivity and viscosity of SF-formic acid solution increased after the plasma treatment. The morphology of SF electrospun scaffolds before and after treatment was investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that plasma treatment significantly improved the electrospinnability of SF solution and the morphology became fine and bead-less. Furthermore, the results of the fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that the plasma treatment increased the crystallinity of SF scaffolds and changed some part of polymer conformation from random coil to 棺-sheet crystals. Additionally, this method increased the mechanical properties and biodegradation resistance of SF scaffolds.
