Crystallization Time Dependence of Nanohybrid Shish-Kebab Structure in HDPE/PA66 Nanofibers Composites via Solution Crystallization

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, PA66 nanofibers were successfully solution electrospun. The crystalline morphological features of HDPE solution induced by nanofibers were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Nanohybrid shish-kebab (NHSK) can be formed in HDPE solution via isothermal crystallization, in which PA66 nanofibers serve as shish and HDPE lamellae act as kebabs surrounding the nanofibers periodically. Additionally, crystallization time has significant effect on the structure of HDPE kebab in NHSK, i.e., as crystallization time increases, the size of the kebab increases and the crystals decorated on PA66 nanofibers exhibit a three-dimensional growth (i.e., aggregate of crystallites) rather than a two-dimensional one (i.e., disc-like lamellae normal to the axis of nanofiber).
