Abstract :
In this study, nanofibers have been prepared from polyacrylonitril (PAN) polymer by usingelectrospinnig method which is the most common method to obtain nanofibers. Nanoclay doped PAN nanofiber webs were prepared by sprinkled nanoclay in spinning process of nanofibers which may be used to purpose of adsorption in other study. Diameter sizes and morphology of the produced PAN nanofibers including nanoclay were examined through SEM and it was observed that nanofibers have about 950 nm diameters. The chemical structure has been tried to be illuminated by using FT-IR and the presence of functional groups in this composition have been investigated. It was observed that there were peak belonging to PAN and nanoclay within the structure of nanofibers. PAN nanofibers included nanoclay have been tried to be characterized thermally by using the TGA (thermal gravimetric analysis) method. In the studied range of temperature, it was observed that two-stage degradation occurred and the thermal degradation was not completed. It was determined that the PAN nanofibers were electrospun with nanoclay could be used as a new alternative adsorbent.
