Abstract : Chitosan/polyvinyl-alcohol (Chitosan/PVA) based nanofibers were successfully produced using electrospinning machine and investigated their application as air filtration. Firstly, 2 wt% chitosan was dissolved to 1 wt?etic acid followed by mixing with PVA solution to produce fiber mats or membrane. Secondly, the morphology and diameter of the electrospun fiber were analyzed by using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), while the chemical compounds in the membrane were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). It was found that the conductivity of solution increased by the concentration of chitosan. Meanwhile, the average diameter and percentage of porosity decreased due to the upsurge of the conductivity of the solution. The average diameter of PVA 13 wt% was (139.4 ± 2.9) and the percentage of porosity were 50.32%. The maximum condition of chitosan/PVA was obtained at 20/80 wt%, in line with the average of fiber diameters (83.1 ± 2.0) and the percentage of porosity were 25.32%. Physicochemical properties of chitosan/PVA solution, such as conductivity, morphology, and chemical absorption were investigated before and after the air filtration. The porosity percentage of PVA 13wt?ter air filtration changed to 35.85% and the percentage of porosity of chitosan/PVA 20/80 became 25.32%. Remarkable absorption peaks of PVA 13wt% exhibited C=O and -NH2 stretching shifted after the air filtration test, it was indicating that functional groups had been reduced. The chemical absorption of chitosan/PVA 20/80 wt% showed - NH2 at the 1581.62 cm-1 the region then disappeared after the air filtration test
