Abstract:
In this paper, Brookfield viscometer was used to test the rheological properties of sodium alginate solution and blends of sodium alginate/polyethyleneglycol（PEG）/molecular sieve in which the molecular weight of sodium alginate solution was respectively 1.59*105Da and 3.27*105Da. Besides, thermal stability and the thermal property of alginate fibers were also investigated by TGA and DSC. The fracture strength of blended alginate fibers was discussed by electronic monofilament tensile strength tester. The results showed that the system was a typical kind of non-Newtonian fluid. The apparent viscosity declined with the increase of shear rate. Rheological properties were affected by temperature and contents of the blends, at the same time, non-Newtonian index and structure viscosity index also changed. Research results were very important to the choice of wet spinning process. The thermal property and energy storage effect of alginate fibers was good, so was the fracture strength.
