Abstract
Graphene oxide incorporated polymer matrix provides a multifunctional facet due to the reinforcing effect of graphene oxide (GO) with wide range of properties. Nanofibers are fabricated by a versatile technique known as electrospinning. The present study demonstrates the fabrication of gelatin, a protein nanofibers non-covalently functionalized with GO. The effect of GO on gelatin nanofibers in terms of mechanical performance is studied. In order to improve the water resistance of the resulting nanofibers, cross-linking is performed using dextran aldehyde.
