Fabrication and application of poly (phenylene sulfide) ultrafine fiber

Abstract Poly (phenylene sulfide) ultrafine fiber is one kind of high-performance fiber with high specific surface area, corrosion resistance, chemical and thermal stability, which can be widely applied in various domains. However, there are few reports about the review of PPS ultrafine fiber. To meet this demand, the paper provides an overall investigation about the fabrication process of PPS ultrafine fiber including sea-island melt spinning, melt electrospinning and melt-blown spinning as well as the application of PPS ultrafine fiber based materials like high temperature filter, lithium ion battery separator, high strength and high modulus composites, oil/water separation membrane, catalytic, adsorption, degradation membrane and so on.
