Abstract
Electrospun aluminum oxide fibers have potential uses in many modern industrial applications. In this thesis we investigate a wide range of electrospinning conditions and characterization techniques to determine the types of bulk and surface characteristics that can be attained with these fibers. The fibers are characterized by a range of techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). These characterization techniques provide an in-depth understanding of these materials and therefore a better idea of their potential uses.
