Preparation and properties of composite cellulose fibres with the addition of graphene oxide
2021
Abstract The paper presents the results of a study on the preparation of cellulose-based composite fibres (CEL) with graphene oxide addition (GO). Composite fibres (GO/CEL) were prepared via the wet spinning method from CEL solutions in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (EMIMAc) that contained a nano-addition of GO dispersion in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The GO contents of the composite fibres were 0, 0.21, 0.50, 0.98, and 1.97 % w w. The fibres were coagulated in two solvents: distilled water and methanol. The results demonstrated that the amount of GO additive and the type of coagulant significantly impact the physicochemical, mechanical and structural properties of the CEL and GO/CEL fibres. The use of distilled water in a coagulation bath causes a degree of crystallinity of 31.0–40.8 % (WAXS) and a shift in the thermal decomposition temperature (by approximately 19 °C) towards higher temperatures (TGA). The results demonstrate improvements in the mechanical properties of the GO/CEL fibres, which were at the level of 9.43–14.18 cN/tex. In addition, the GO/CEL fibres exhibit satisfactory GO dispersion throughout their volume.
