Peppermint extract-compound nanofiber production and characterization |
Purpose As a result of referee evaluation, the subject scope of the article has been expanded. Previously, only polycaprolactone (PCL) loaded with peppermint extract had been studied. As a result of peer review, nanostructure production was made with peppermint-loaded polylactic acid (PLA). Literature information about PLA polymer has been added to the Introduction section. Additionally, to analyze the presence of peppermint extract in Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) measurements, a comparison was made with 100% PCL, 100% PLA and 100% peppermint extract. In order to observe the effect of polymer type, evaluations were made between the produced peppermint-loaded nanostructures containing |

A comparative fractographic analysis for the effect of polymeric nanofiber reinforcements on the tensile behavior of multi-layered epoxy nanocomposites
This study presents a comparative investigation into the effects of four different nanofibers—PA66, PStX, PAN, and PVB—on the mechanical performance and failure mechanisms of epoxy adhesive films. These nanofiber‐reinforced adhesive layers were manufactured via a dry‐reinforcement resin film infusion method and tested under uniaxial tensile loading. Mechanical results showed that PA66 and PStX nanofibers improved tensile strength by up to 25%, primarily by mitigating crack initiation at free edges and promoting effective fiber–matrix bonding. In contrast, PAN nanofibers induced micro‐cracks at the fiber–resin interface, amplifying crack coalescence and reducing strength by 25%. 03/01/2025
