Simultaneous enhancement of toughness, strength and superhydrophilicity of solvent-free microcrystalline cellulose fluids/poly(lactic acid) fibers fabricated via electrospinning approach
چکیده انگلیسی
In this paper, solvent-free microcrystalline cellulose fluids (MCCFs) with liquid-like behavior were synthesized for the first time through surface grafted polyethylene glycol-substituted tertiary amines into microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) followed by fabricating MCCFs based polylactic acid (PLA) fabric (PLA/MCCFs) via electrospinning method. Owing to low viscosity of MCCFs at room temperature, the addition of MCCFs not only hardly affected the viscosity of electrospinning solution, but also improved the thermal stability of as-prepared PLA fibers. Interestingly, it was amazingly found that surface micropore morphology of PLA fabric diminished, and even disappeared with the content of MCCFs increasing during solvent evaporation process, which may be ascribed to the rapid migration of MCCFs into micropore before solidification. More importantly, the tensile strengths of PLA/MCCFs fabric with 10 wt% content of MCCFs achieved as high as 13.68 MPa, which was 3.18 times as much as that of 4.3 MPa for pure PLA fabric meanwhile the elongation at break of PLA/MCCFs fabrics increased from 13.19% for pure PLA fabric to 48.84% for PLA/MCCFs fabric with 15 wt% content of MCCFs. Beyond above mentioned, the water contact angle for pure PLA fabric was 127° (hydrophobicity), whereas other samples were close to 0° with addition of MCCFs, displaying the super-hydrophilicity. It was possibly inferred that MCCFs quickly migrated towards to the surface of fibers rather than staying inside of the fibers during the electrospinning process, leading to positive effect on the hydrophilicity of the PLA fibers. Finally, it is anticipated that this strategy for fabricating PLA fiber using this novel MCCFs as filler will pave the way for developing high performance PLA composites with desirable properties in the future.
