Electrospinning technology is widely used for preparing biological tissue engineering scaffolds because of its advantages of simple preparation, accurate process parameters, and easy control. Poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) is regarded as a promising biomass-based polymer for use in electrospinning. The incorporation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) could improve the osteogenic differentiation and proliferation of cells in the presence or absence of a static magnetic field (SMF). In this work, these two materials were blended together to obtain electrospun samples with better dispersibility and improved magnetic properties. First, composite PLLA and Fe3O4 NP fibers were prepared by means of electrospinning. The influence of electrospinning conditions on the morphology of the composite fibers was then discussed. Changes in magnetic properties and thermal stability resulting from the use of different PLLA/Fe3O4 mass ratios were also considered. Next, the morphology, crystal state, thermodynamic properties, and magnetic properties of the electrospun samples were determined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and vibration sample magnetization (VSM). The results showed that the fibers prepared using PLLA with Mn = 170,000 exhibited good morphology when electrospun at 12 KV. The magnetic properties of PLLA/Fe3O4 composite electrospun fibers increased with the NP content, with the exception of thermal stability. The results of the present study may help to promote the further development of PLLA/Fe3O4 composite materials in the biomedical field.
