The Preparation and Structure Characterization of Nano-Alumina Fiber Doped Cerium by Electrospinning

Article Preview

Abstract:

Alumina fiber, a kind of inorganic fiber, was widely used in many fields owing to its excellent performance. CeCl3/AlCl3/PVP was used as spinning solution for producing organic-inorganic hybrid fiber by electrospinning, then, alumina fiber doped cerium can be successfully obtained after high temperature calcination. In the paper, the influence of CeCl3 to the crystallization and thermal stability was discussed. The results show that alumina nanofiber with average diameters of 200nm-800nm are obtained by calcination of the as-prepared fibers .The addition of CeCl3 significantly delay the crystallization transformation process of alumina fiber, while the formation of CeO2 reduce diffusion rate of Al3+, eventually, imped the phase transformation of Al2O3 and improve its thermal stability.
