A composite nanofiber containing poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and silica (SiO2) were prepared by electrospinning of their mixtrues.The various amount of SiO2 nanoparticle was add with 15 wt.% PVDF solution in mixed solvent of N,N-dimethylacetamine (DMAc) : acetone at a ratio of 4:6 with the applied voltage of 8 kV, tip to collector distance of 10 cm and flow rate of 1 ml/hr. The morphology of the PVDF/SiO2 membranes was investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The effect of SiO2 concentration on the morphology of the composite membranes were discussed. Crystallinity of the composite membranes was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was found that SiO2 concentration have significant influence on the morphology and crystallinity of PVDF/SiO2 membranes.

Reversible Melting

Dynamic mechanical spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry measurements carried out on PVDF films are reported. Several mechanical relaxations are observed around - 100° C, -40° C, and 17° C at 1 Hz, respectively. It is shown that thermomechanical treatments induce variation of material morphology as revealed by calorimetry and low-frequency mechanical spectroscopy. The effect of long-term ageing at room temperature is attributed to reversible melting and formation of small crystallites. The molecular rearrangements involved in ageing at room temperature are characterized by a slow dynamics.
