Problems solved by technology

However, the metal alkoxide hydrolyzed sol is an unstable system that is dependent on temperature. During the electrospinning process, it is often accompanied by reaction processes such as hydrolysis, coagulation, and gelation. The viscosity of the system also changes with time, resulting in frequent coarse Fiber formation, in severe cases, will block the nozzle, making it difficult to continuously obtain fibers of uniform size
For this reason, it is necessary to add a catalyst to the solution to adjust the rate of hydrolysis and gelation, and to reduce the rate of hydrolysis and gelation by reducing the ambient humidity near the jet or saturating the solvent around it, resulting in complicated spinning operations. Increased preparation costs

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing mullite nanofibers by combination of a non-hydrolytic sol-gel technology and an electrostatic spinning technology, and belongs to the technical field of material science. The method comprises that anhydrous aluminum chloride and tetraethoxysilane as raw materials, isopropyl ether as an oxygen donor and anhydrous dichloromethane as a solvent are synthesized into mullite xerogel by the non-hydrolytic sol-gel method; anhydrous ethanol and tetrahydrofuran are mixed into a mixed solution A; the mullite xerogel is dissolved in the mixed solution A so that a mixed solution B is obtained; polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and the mixed solution B are mixed by stirring; a less amount of N-N-dimethylformamide is dropwisely added into the mixture obtained by the previous step so that a spinning precursor is obtained; the spinning precursor is prepared into mullite xerogel/PVP composite fibers by an electrostatic spinning technology; and the mullite xerogel/PVP composite fibers are calcined at a temperature of 900 to 1200 DEG C and then are subjected to heat preservation for 0.5 to 5h to form the mullite nanofibers. The method has the advantages of simple processes, easy control and low preparation cost.
