Poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) has been widely used as a biomaterial in recent years. Its bio-compatibility and good thermo-mechanical properties are the main features that lead to the selection of these materials for biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. The aim of this work was the processing and characterization of PCL/carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers mats with diameters in the nano and micrometer scale by electrospinning, combining the application of an Alternating Current (AC) and Direct Current (DC) aiming the formation of oriented fibers and control of the jet flow stability in order to determine process parameters and compare the effects of different frequencies during processing. The samples were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), where the influence of frequency on the average diameter of fibers was observed. The interaction between PCL and carbon nanotube (NTC) was assessed by FTIR
