In this research, PVP polymer was chosen because of its wide and safe use in the medical field. The purpose of this study was to produce PVP fibers that can later be applied as a carrier of active ingredients in drug delivery systems. The rotary forcespinning (RFS) method was chosen to shorten the time of production and to overcome the limitations of electrospinning method such as the use of high voltage and dielectric solutions. The PVP solution was varied in several concentrations (8 wt%, 10 wt%, 12 wt%, 14 wt%, 16 wt%, and 18 wt%) to achieve the best fibers morphology. The morphology and the diameter of fibers were analyzed using a digital microscope. From the microscope images, it can be shown that beaded fibers were formed when the concentration of polymer in the precursor solution was low. The number of beads decreased as the concentration of polymer increased. Beads-free fibers were fully formed at above certain polymer concentration.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Active ingredients,Digital microscopes,Drug delivery system,Electrospinning method,Microscope images,Poly vinyl pyrrolidone,Polymer concentrations,Precursor solutions[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Fibers,polyvinylpyrrolidone and rotary forcespinning[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]This research was financially supported by Directorate of Research and Community Engagement of Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education, the Republic of Indonesia, under the University’s Excellence Research (PUPT) Grant in the fiscal years 2016-2017.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1757-899X/367/1/012044[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
