Natural composite fibers made from Soy Protein Isolate (SPI) and pullulan (PUL) in water were characterised after needleless electrospinning using wire electrode. Solution parameters such as SPI to PUL blend ratios, pH of solution, denaturation temperature and duration were varied to study their eff...
