This research involved fabricating Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers using the NF-500 electrospinning unit and using a high voltage power supply by Spellman Inch as well as the STF Series Split Tube Furnace to be able to fabricate carbon fiber from the solution. The four samples made and tested were PAN charged before furnace treatment, PAN charged after furnace treatment, PAN Uncharged only furnace, and PAN Uncharged No furnace which was the control group. Using the PicoScope 5000 series all four samples were tested and the output voltage of each were observed after an 8.38-gram weight was dropped from heights ranging from 2 inches, 3 inches, and 4 inches onto the sample.
