The production of polymeric nanofibers has been gaining prominence in research and development in recent decades, many are the factors that influence the quality of the fibers produced, among them, the stress applied in the process stands out. The present study evaluates the influence of the variation in the applied electrical voltage (12.5 kV, 15 kV, 25 kV) in the production of polyacrylonitrile-co-vinyl acetate (PV) nanofibers by electrospinning. It was observed that increases in the applied tension lead to a reduction in the average diameter of the PV fibers. It is important to carry out more studies to analyze the influence on different polymers fostering advances in the production of nanofibers with special characteristics and properties for the most diverse industrial sectors.
