Wet spinning of PVA composite fibers with a large fraction of multi-walled carbon nanotubes

PVA composites fibers with a large fraction of multi-walled carbon nanotubes modified by both covalent and non-covalent functionalization were produced by a wet-spinning process.Model XQ-1 tensile tester,thermogravimetric analysis,scanning electron microscopy,differential scanning calorimetry,and wide-angle X-ray diffraction were used to characterize the properties of PVA/MWNT composite fibers.The TGA results suggested that MWNTs content in composite fibers were ranged from 5.3 wt%to 27.6 wt%.The mechanical properties of PVA/MWNT composite fibers were obviously superior to pure PVA fiber.The Young's modulus of composite fibers enhanced with increasing the content of MWNTs,and it rised gradually from 6.7 GPa for the pure PVA fiber to 12.8 GPa for the composite fibers with 27.6 wt%MWNTs.Meanwhile,the tensile strength increased gradually from 0.39 GPa for the pure PVA fiber to 0.74 GPa for the composite fibers with 14.4 wt%MWNTs.Nevertheless,the tensile strength of the composite fibers decreased as the MWNTs content up to 27.6 wt%.SEM results indicated that the MWNTs homogeneously dispersed in the composite fibers,however some agglomerates also existed when the content of MWNTs reached27.6 wt%.DSC results proved strong interfacial interaction between MWNTs and PVA chain,which benefited composite fibers in the efficient stress-transfer.WXAD characterization showed that the orientation of PVA molecules declined from 94.1%to 90.9%with the increasing of MWNTs content.The good dispersibility of MWNTs throughout PVA matrix and efficient stress-transfer between MWNTs and PVA matrix may contributed to significant enhancement in the mechanical properties.
