Abstract

Manufacturing and characterization of polysulfone and graphene oxide (PSU-GrO) fibers, obtained by electrospinning and evaluated for their potential use in water purification, is presented. Effect of electrospinning operation parameters on surface morphology, fiber diameter, hydrophobicity and flux permeate was established. Distance and voltage were the more significative parameters on fiber diameter, morphology and flow permeate. Evaluation of obtained membranes, for their potential use in water purification, indicates that there is an clear effect of fiber diameter on performance.
