Preparation and Properties of Electrospun PVC Nanofiber

Abstract:

Nanofibrous membranes based on poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) were prepared by electrospinning. The morphology of nanofibrous was observed under field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and effects of instrument parameters including electric voltage, tip to collector distance, and solution parameters such as PVC concentration and mixed solvent of THF and DMF (50:50) were evaluated. The beads on the fiber were formed with low concentration of PVC. The dielectric constant, thermal properties and crystallinity of the electrospun membranes were characterized by precision LCR meter, and differential thermal analysis (DTA), respectively. It was found that smooth surface of electrospun PVC nanofiber had a high ionic conductivity and their thermal properties were improved comparing with PVC sheet.
