 Solution Preparation
• Composition of our solution:
-3.6grams of Nylon 6/6 pallets
-25ml of (98-100% concentration) Formic acid
[HCOOH].
• Stirring of solution using magnetic stirrer for 90mins.
• For homogenous and viscous solution it was kept idle
for about 15hrs.
 Steps for Solution preparation

A. Nylon 6/6- 3.6gm B. Formic acid- 20ml

 Electrospinning of nanofibers
