Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Althoughpolyurethane possesses excelent biocompatibility, its inherent inertness leads to its weak interactions with cels. So, its modification is necessary. OBJECTIVE:To prepare the polyurethane/polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane nanocomposite fibers with controlable morphology. METHODS:The polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane was dispersed in a certain concentration of polyurethane solution to prepare the polyurethane/polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane nanocomposite fibers using electrospinning method. Meanwhile, the effects of mass of polyurethane and oligomeric silsesquioxane, spinning voltage and spinning advance velocity on composite fiber morphology were analyzed. The optimum preparing conditions were filtrated. The stability of oligomeric silsesquioxane in polyurethane was determined. The morphology and composition of fibers were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Oligomeric silsesquioxane stably existed in polyurethane. Polyurethane/polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane nanocomposite fibers were the most uniform when the mass fraction of polyurethane in composite fibers accounted for 20%, the mass ratio of polyurethane and oligomeric silsesquioxane was 10: 1, spinning voltage was 15 kV and spinning advance velocity was 0.5 mL/h. Compared with the pure polyurethane, the O/C ratio of polyurethane/polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane nanocomposites increased significantly.
