Poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)/poly (2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid) (PNIPAAm/PAMPS) nanofibers was prepared using the electrospinning technique. The electrospinning process parameters such as solution concentration, voltage, receiver distance and flow rate were determined by the orthogonal experiments. The appropriate electrospinning parameters were 7.0% of solution concentration, 10.0 kV of voltage, 20 cm of distance and 3.1 mu L.min(-1) of flow rate, respectively. The major factor affecting the nanofibers diameter was the solution concentration and the diameter increased with the solution concentration. The Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was conducted to characterize the structure of the components for electrospinning. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was taken to observe the morphology, and the contact angle (CA) measuring was carried out to determine the wettability of the nanofibers with temperatures. The results of SEM observation showed that the surfaces of nanofibers were smooth with uniform fibrous diameters and without the formation of beads. The CA detections showed that the electrospun PNIPAAm/PAMPS nanofibers exhibited thermo-sensitivity of hydrophilicity at 20 degrees C and hydrophobicity at 40 degrees C.
