Özet

In this study, the development of filters made of spunbond fabric coated with nanofiber

surface was studied. With Covid 19, filters have gained importance in terms of human health. In this

study, it is aimed to produce filters by using cellulose acetate and polyvinyl alcohol materials with the

help of solution blowing method. The purpose of choosing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) raw material is

that it is not toxic and not polluting the environment, has high chemical stability, high abrasion

resistance and low cost.

Cellulose acetate (CA) material was chosen because it is a renewable, biodegradable, low-cost and

high-quality fiber source that can be used in many manufacturing processes. These two materials were

chosen in order to make the produced filter environmentally friendly and biodegradable. For the

samples produced; tensile strength and FT-IR tests were carried out.
