Problems solved by technology

[0006] (2) Reinforced by the base fabric or compounded with other materials. For example, in the patent application number 201010113456.0, the mesh cloth is used to cover the receiving electrode, so that the electrospun nanofiber is combined with the mesh cloth to enhance the strength of the electrospun membrane; another example is the application number: In the patent of 201310036655.X, electrospun membranes and needle-punched / spunlace non-woven fabrics are hot-rolled and composited to prepare reinforced composite nanofiber materials. This method uses materials with higher strength to overcome the low strength of electrospun nanofiber membranes. However, increasing the thickness of the film and introducing unnecessary other polymer components restricts its application in many fields;
[0007] (3) Electrospinning with high-performance polymers: For example, in the patent application number 201010501343.8, polyamic acid is used for electrospinning, and the polyimide film prepared by thermal imidization has a strength of up to 24MPa, which is This method is only limited to specific polymers and does not have universal applicability;
[0009] (5) Miscible electrospinning - hot (melt) treatment: Gao Kun's research also found that the miscible electrospinning of PVDF / PEO two-component polymers found that the strength of the 7:3 miscible electrospun membrane reached 14.9MPa , the strength of the miscible electrospun membrane increased to 16.1MPa after hot-melt treatment under the optimal conditions, and the strength of the electrospun membrane did not increase substantially
[0010] The aforementioned electrospun membrane reinforcement method can improve the strength of nanofibers to a certain extent, thereby improving the strength of electrospun nanofiber membranes, but effective bonding between fibers still cannot occur, and the mechanical strength of electrospun membranes cannot be improved as a whole. , has a very limited
[0011] (6) Chemical bonding treatment: For example, in the patent application number 201110003226.3, a solution of a moisture-curing reactive polyurethane prepolymer with a highly reactive isocyanate group is used to treat the two-component electrostatic bonding of the polymer resin and polyurethane. Soaking the spun membrane can make the nanofibers bond to each other and improve the strength of the membrane, but this method is cumbersome to operate and the degree is difficult to control, so it is not suitable for industrial promotion and use

Embodiment 1

[0053] PAN and 21216 PVDF produced by Solvay were used as two polymers for mixed electrospinning. Among them, PAN, as a high-melting point component, can still maintain thermal stability at 220 °C. The nanofiber membrane obtained by electrospinning has a large tensile modulus after hot rolling, but the elongation at break and the strength at break are low ( see Figure 14 ); PVDF21216 is a thermoplastic low-melting polymer component with a melting point of 135°C and an initial melting temperature of 110°C. The tensile modulus of the fiber membrane obtained by its single-component electrospinning is small, but the elongation at break and the strength at break are relatively large (see Figure 12 ).
