Production of Parallel Aligned Nanofiber Rovings From Continuous Bundles

This study presents a novel approach to converting electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber bundles into rovings, essential for nanofiber yarn spinning, through the implementation of false twisting and drawing processes. The false twisting process is optimized by varying the input bundle angle (40° to 60°), twister type (A, B, C), and rotation speed (20, 50, and 80 rpm). A bundle input angle of 55°, twister type B, and a twister rotation speed of 80 rpm show the best results in terms of longer twisted length, lower average thickness, and thickness variation values. The morphological, physical, and mechanical properties of the resulting nanofiber rovings for drawing process
