Electrospun MgO/Nylon 6 Hybrid Nanofibers for Protective Clothing

Magnesia(MgO) nanoparticles were produced from magnesite ore(MgCO3) using ball mill. The crystalline size, morphology and specific SSA were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method, respectively. MgO nanoparticle-incorporated nylon6 solutions were electrospun to produce nanofiber mats. Surface morphology and internal structure of the prepared hybrid nanofiber mats were examined by scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, respectively. The fire retardancy and antibacterial activity(Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) of coated fabrics made from MgO/nylon 6 hybrid nanofiber are better than those from nylon6 nanofiber.

静电纺丝法制备尼龙-6/SiO_2-TiO_2杂化纳米纤维

采用静电纺丝法结合溶胶凝胶技术,制备了尼龙-6/SiO2-TiO2杂化纳米纤维。采用红外光谱(FT-IR)、X射线衍射(XRD)、UV-vis、热重分析(TG)和扫描电镜(SEM)等对杂化纳米纤维进行分析表征。结果表明,随着SiO2-TiO2溶胶的引入,电纺纤维的结晶度下降,耐热性能提升。尼龙-6电纺纤维的平均直径约为160 nm,杂化电纺纤维随无机组分中TiO2含量增加,纤维直径增大,直径分布变宽,当n(SiO2)∶n(TiO2)为1∶8时,纤维平均直径达到约250 nm;同时随TiO2含量增加,杂化电纺纤维对紫外光的吸收增强。
