摘要
Chitosan (CS) has been extensively studied and found wide applications in the field of biomedicine because of its favorable biological properties. Normal CS fibers are manufactured either by wet-spinning or by dry-jet wet-spinning. However, the poor tensile strength of CS fibers raises much concern. The present study uses chitin nanocrystal (ChiNC), a stiff rod-like nanofiller, to enhance the mechanical properties of wet-spun CS fibers. Owing to the good compatibility between CS and ChiNC, the nanoparticles are well distributed in the CS matrix. When the ChiNCs loading is 5 wt %, the optimal mechanical properties of CS fibers are obtained, and the peak stress is 2.2 cN/dtex and modulus is 145.6 cN/dtex, which are increased by 57% and 84.5%, respectively, compared to that of nonfilled CS fibers under the same processing condition. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
