Polymer Processing with Supercritical Fluids
Supercritical fluids have a unique and valuable potential for the enhanced processing of many materials. This review describes research in the applications of supercritical fluids to polymer processing. The ability of supercritical carbon dioxide to swell and plasticize polymers is crucial to the impregnation, extraction, and modification of polymeric materials. This plasticization also reduces...
متن کاملPolymer Chain Collapse in Supercritical Fluids
Recent computer simulations of a polymer chain in a solvent have provided evidence, for the first time, of polymer chain collapse near the lower critical solution temperature (LCST). Motivated by these results, we have studied further this system to understand the effect of solvent and monomer sizes, chain length, and solvent and monomer energetic interactions. By means of extensive Monte Carlo...
متن کاملElectrospinning: A whipping fluid jet generates submicron polymer fibers
Polymeric fibers with diameters in the range from 50 nm to 5 mm are produced by accelerating a fluid jet in an electric field, in a process known as ‘‘electrospinning.’’ Here we show that an essential element of the process is a fluid instability, the rapidly whipping jet. The phenomena responsible for the onset of whipping are revealed by a linear instability analysis that describes the jet be...
متن کاملSimultaneous Electrospinning of Two Polymer Solutions in a Side-by-side Approach to Produce Bicomponent Fibers
5.1 Chapter Summary Bicomponent fibers, in the range of 100 nm to a few microns, of miscible poly(vinylchloride)/segmented polyurethane (PVC/Estane) and immiscible poly(vinyl chloride)/poly(vinylidienefluoride) (PVC/PVDF) were produced respectively by electrospinning two polymer solutions in a side-by-side approach. For each of the pairs investigated, PVC/Estane and PVC/PVDF, energy dispersive ...
متن کاملProducing Cellulose nanofiber from Cotton wastes by electrospinning method
One of the main issues of nanotechnology is producing materials with new properties. Nanotechnology, as a powerful tool, has the ability to create evolution in the agricultural system and food–medicinal industries across the world. Producing a high-performance material from reclaimed cellulose material will increase motivation to recycle these materials at all phases of paper production and rem...
