Synthetic gel-spun collagen and collagen/nano-carbon fibers were found to exhibit structural mimicry comparable to native tendons. X-ray scattering and microscopy analyses are used to characterize the molecular and fibrillar alignment in the synthetic fibers, where D-banding is observed throughout the spun fibers – consistent with native collagen. For the composite collagen/nano-carbon fibers, the...
A gel-spinning approach was used to form collagen-based fibers with loadings of both single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) and carbon nano-chips (CNC) (i.e., short few-wall carbon nanotubes). Upon formation the fibers were dried and tested to analyze the influence of the nano-carbons on collagen self-assembly. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) studies show that the presence of the nano-carbon does...
