Abstract

In this study, two kinds of spinning solutions were prepared by dissolving bamboo cellulose pulp into 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazole chloride salt ([EMIM] Cl) and 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazole diethyl phosphate salt ([BMIM]DEP) ionic liquids, respectively. Furthermore, the rotational rheometer was used to test the steady-state rheological properties of above as-prepared spinning solutions. The research results show that both of these two ionic liquids exhibit better solubility to the bamboo cellulose pulp. The apparent viscosities(ηa) decrease with the increased temperature(T) and shear rate(γ) and increase with the increased concentration. The non-Newtonian index(n) declined with the increase of both shear rate and concentration, as well as increased with the build-up temperature. The structural viscosity index(Δη) increased with the increased concentration and tended to decrease with temperature rise. Meanwhile, viscous flow activation energy(Eη) decreases with the increased share rate as well as the concentration. According to the results, it can be seen that the bamboo cellulose pulp/[EMIM]Cl with the concentration of 6% at 70°C exhibits better spinnability.
