In this paper, the study has successfully incorporated aluminum (Al) powder into Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) fibers through electrospinning method. The Al loading of 0.0wt%, 0.25wt%, 0.5wt%, 0.75wt% and 1.0wt% were incorporated into 15wt% PVDF concentration. PVDF was dissolved using DMF using magnetic stirrer before the mixture was electrospun and the yield fiber was collected for further characterization. The resulting fibers exhibited a beaded structure and the presence of agglomerates attributed to the Al powder. The PVDF with 0.75wt% aluminum powder sample showed promising results in reaching the desired ß-phase, while the PVDF with 0.25wt% aluminum powder sample demonstrated the optimum electrical conductivity.

摘要

In this paper, the study has successfully incorporated aluminum (Al) powder into Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) fibers through electrospinning method. The Al loading of 0.0wt%, 0.25wt%, 0.5wt%, 0.75wt% and 1.0wt% were incorporated into 15wt% PVDF concentration. PVDF was dissolved using DMF using magnetic stirrer before the mixture was electrospun and the yield fiber was collected for further characterization. The resulting fibers exhibited a beaded structure and the presence of agglomerates attributed to the Al powder. The PVDF with 0.75wt% aluminum powder sample showed promising results in reaching the desired ß-phase, while the PVDF with 0.25wt% aluminum powder sample demonstrated the optimum electrical conductivity. The PVDF contained 1.0wt% aluminum powder sample have the largest fiber beads size.
