Abstract
AbstractHigh‐speed centrifugal spinning is a novel method of fabricating nanofibers by use of centrifugal force field. The neoteric designs and proper structural parameters of spinning nozzle will change the outlet velocity and velocity distribution uniformity of spinning solution, which could affect the quality of nanofibers. Four different spinning nozzles that can be used for high‐speed centrifugal spinning are proposed. The flow of spinning solution in the different rotary nozzles is simulated based on the theoretical analysis. It can be found that the curved‐tube nozzle is better for high‐speed centrifugal spinning comparing with the velocity distribution of spinning solution in the four different spinning nozzles. The influence degree of the structure parameters of the curved‐tube nozzle on the solution outlet‐velocity is explored by orthogonal test method. The result shows that the curved‐tube nozzle with an inlet diameter of 10 mm, conical transition pipe length of 3 mm, nozzle outlet diameter of 0.8 mm, curvature radius of 4 mm, and central angle of curved tube of 30°, can effectively enhance the outlet velocity of spinning solution. Finally, it is proved by centrifugal spinning experiment that the curved‐tube nozzle after optimization can improve the morphology and quality of nanofibers.
