Abstract

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) solutions were prepared at a constant concentration in dimethylformamide (DMF) medium with different concentrations of octadecylamine (ODA) colloidal surfactant. (ODA). The studied solutions were spun with an electric spinning device, with a voltage of 30 kV, the collector cylinder is 10 cm from the injector, the pumping rate is 0.5 ml/hr, the diameter of the injector needle is 0.5 mm, and the diameter of the injection needle is 0.5 mm. The accumulator rotation speed is 100 c/min. We examined the spun fibers using SEM scanning electron microscopy, and found a decrease in the diameter of these fibers from 280 nm to 115 nm due to the increase in the surface active substance (ODA) concentration. The X-ray diffraction spectrum was examined for the as-prepared fibers, and we observed an evolution of the crystal structure of PAN in the presence of ODA.
