(a) Schematic representation of electrospinning process used to fabricate PLLA nanofibers. (b) Surface of PLLA nanofibers were modified using in situ polymerization technique to form PANI coating. Surface coating of PLLA nanofibers with PANI was also tried in the presence of CNT. Scanning electron micrographs of PLLA, PLLA/PANI, and PLLA/PANI/CNT nanofibers were presented.
