Abstract

Alginate is a polysaccharide isolated from seaweed. This polymer is relatively biocompatible and has a negative charge. As a biochemical substance, it is widely used in drug release, wound production, printing, dyeing, and completing textiles. One of the most important methods for producing this biochemical polymer is the wet spinning method. In the present study, for the production of laboratory-scale alginate fibers, the wet spinning method, a chemical-based method, was used. After examining the behavior of polymeric polymer rheology that plays  an important role in determining the membrane performance, adding olive oil to the spinning solution increased viscosity from 0.55605 [Pa.s]to 2.0542 [Pa.s]. The fibers produced had an integrated and uniform diameter. The strength and the structural properties of the fiber were examined. The results showed that the effect of the olive oil was to increase the stability of the spinning and elasticity of the fiber. An increase in strength was observed with an increase in porosity in the fiber structure. Multiple maps were prepared from the results of linear analysis and analysis was done using Energy Dispersive x-ray Spectroscopy(EDS). The presence of olive oil was confirmed in the linear analysis and the images of the alginate showed samples containing olive oil.
