Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is one of the most common polymers used in the water treatment industry due to outstanding hydrophobicity and mechanical strength. Generating eco‐friendly membranes derived from natural polymers has gained attention, particularly for water purification and producing potable water. In this study, nonwoven mats were prepared by electrospinning polymer solutions. Mats with a tailorable hydrophilicity were prepared by electrospinning solution mixtures containing PVC and an eco‐friendly, hydrophilic natural polymer: soy protein. As the viscosity of the solution decreased, the average fiber diameter, and average pore surface area reduced. However, when the PVC concentration remained constant and the soy protein concentration increased, the viscosity decreased and average fiber diameter became reduced, while the average pore diameter remained relatively constant. The mats with volumetric ratios of PVC:soy protein of 85:15 and 80:20 displayed optimal characteristics suitable for mat fabrication based on the fiber diameter and average pore surface area. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 64: 2737–2744, 2018

通过静电纺丝制备的PVC-大豆蛋白非织造垫的表征

由于出色的疏水性和机械强度，聚氯乙烯（PVC）是水处理行业中最常用的聚合物之一。生成源自天然聚合物的环保膜已受到关注，特别是在水净化和生产饮用水方面。在这项研究中，通过电纺聚合物溶液制备了非织造垫。通过静电纺丝含有PVC和生态友好的亲水性天然聚合物：大豆蛋白的溶液混合物，可以制备具有可调节亲水性的垫子。随着溶液粘度的降低，平均纤维直径和平均孔表面积降低。但是，当PVC浓度保持恒定且大豆蛋白浓度增加时，粘度降低，平均纤维直径减小，而平均孔径保持相对恒定。PVC：大豆蛋白的体积比为85:15和80:20的垫子显示出适合于基于纤维直径和平均孔表面积的垫子制造的最佳特性。©2018美国化学工程师学会AIChE J，64：2737–2744，2018
