Effect of Modified Natural Rubber on Morphology, Chemical Structure, and Crystallinity of Electrospun Polyvinylidene Difluoride Nanofibers
Abstract:
Natural rubber latex was chemically modified by enzymatic deproteinization, degradation, and epoxidation to produce deproteinized liquid epoxidized natural rubber (DP-LENR). Polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) was blended with DP-LENR and then electrospun to produce nanofibers. Scanning electron microscopy shows reduction in the fiber diameter and beading formation with increasing concentration of DP-LENR. Smooth surface of nanofibers suggests miscibility and chemical compatibility of PVDF with low concentration of DP-LENR. Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis show the addition of DP-LENR has no effect on chemical structure and crystallinity of electrospun PVDF.
