Abstract: In this research, a novel nanofibrous
composite of KCC-1/nylon 6 was prepared using
electrospinning techniques. First, fibrous silica nanospheres
(KCC-1) were synthesized via conventional
polycondensation method with a new solvent system.
The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images
showed a spongy spherical morphology with a
uniform distribution of particle sizes and an average
diameter of around 305 nm. Synthesized KCC-1
nanospheres are considered as mesoporous materials
due to their high BET specific surface area of
576 m2 g-1 and BJH average pore diameter of
3.28 nm. The KCC-1/nylon 6 composite was fabricated
by preparing a dispersion of nanosilica
(10–50 % w/w) in a solution of nylon 6 (15 % w/v)
in formic acid. Upon applying a high voltage, the
nonwoven electrospun KCC-1/nylon 6 composite
nanofibers were obtained. The KCC-1 nanospheres
were arranged in line along the nylon 6 fibers like
rosary beads wrapped in the polymer. Based on the
SEM images, we obtained a well-distributed
nanocomposite even at higher silica content. The
prepared KCC-1/nylon 6 composite showed 29–55 %
higher BET specific surface area compared with pure
nylon 6 nanofibers which makes it a good candidate to
be used as a sorbent material for environmental or drug
delivery applications.
