Abstract

Composite fibers were prepared by solid-state dissolution of cellulose in N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide with added tetraethoxysilane (TEOS). It was shown that adding TEOS to the cellulose matrix increased up to 16% the fiber carbon residue during heat treatment. Bonds formed between Si and C during their high-temperature treatment according to IR spectra of the composite cellulose fibers. The thermal behavior of the fibers was studied using TGA and TMA. The fiber morphology and the structure of the Si-containing additive particles were examined using SEM and TEM. The mechanical properties of carbon fibers prepared from cellulose-hydrate and composite fibers were compared.
