Abstract:

In this study, an organic⁃inorganic compounded nucleating agent (CH⁃S04) was used to enhance the mechanical properties of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) microfibers. The non⁃isothermal crystallization behavior of the resultant PLA/CH⁃S04 fiber films as well as the action mechanism of CH⁃S04 in the multistage drafting process were studied under different spinning temperatures and voltages, and their mechanical properties of PLA/CH⁃S04 fiber films were characterized. The results indicated that when the spinning temperature was 220 ℃ and the spinning voltage was 50 kV, the degrees of crystallinity of PLA/CH⁃S04 fiber films reached maximum values of 27.12 % at a spinning temperature of 220 ℃ and 32.32 % at a spinning voltage of 50 kV, which were 18.53 % and 23.73 % higher than that of pure PLA fiber film, respectively. In different spinning receiving forms, CH⁃S04 achieved the best crystallization enhancing effect on PLA when applying voltage and air flow together with collecting by a roller. The resulting PLA/CH⁃S04 fiber film obtained a degree of crystallinity of 36.66 %, which was 28.07 % higher than that of pure PLA fiber film. The PLA/CH⁃S04 fiber film obtained tensile strength 12.33 MPa at a spinning temperature of 240 ℃ and a spinning voltage of 50 kV, which was 11.58 % higher than that of pure PLA fiber film.
