Abstract

The current study examined the viability of synthesizing cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) from rice husk using acid hydrolysis 10 % HCl. The PVA polymer solution was enhanced with Triton x-100 as a surfactant and different amounts of CNF were introduced before the electrospinning procedure. The CNF extracted in this study had a diameter of 9.6 nm. It exhibited elongated, fibrous formations like a web, with a crystallinity level of 70 %. The negative charge from the CNF was introduced to augment the conductivity and viscosity of the rotating fluid. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) studies validated the interaction between PVA and CNFs throughout their mixing process. The use of CNF enhanced the thermal stability of the PVA nanofibrous composite. The PVA/CNF nanofibrous composite displayed smooth surfaces and potential for diverse medical applications, food packaging, and water purification.

稻壳中纤维素纳米纤维的提取和表征：静电纺PVA/CNF复合材料的潜力

本研究考察了用10%盐酸酸水解稻壳合成纤维素纳米纤维（CNFs）的可行性。用Triton x-100作为表面活性剂对PVA聚合物溶液进行强化，并在静电纺丝前加入不同量的CNF。本研究提取的CNF直径为9.6 nm。它表现出细长的纤维状结构，像一张网，结晶度为70%。CNF的负电荷被引入来增加旋转流体的电导率和粘度。傅里叶变换红外（FTIR）研究证实了PVA和CNFs在混合过程中的相互作用。CNF的使用提高了聚乙烯醇纳米纤维复合材料的热稳定性。聚乙烯醇/CNF纳米纤维复合材料表面光滑，具有多种医疗应用、食品包装和水净化的潜力。
