The physical properties of porous silica nanofibers are an important factor that impacts their performance in various applications. In this study, porous silica nanofibers were produced via solution blow spinning (SBS) from a silica precursor/polymer solution. Two polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP, Mw = 360,000 and 1,300,000) were chosen as spinning aids in order to create different pore properties. The effect of their physical properties on the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) in an aqueous solution was explored. After forming, the nanofibers were calcined to remove the organic phase and create pores. The calcined nanofibers had a large amount of micro and mesopores without the use of additional surfactants. The molecular weight of the PVP impacted the growth of silica particles and consequently the pore size. High Mw PVP inhibited the growth of silica particles, resulting in a large volume of micropores. On the other hand, silica nanofibers with a high fraction of mesopores were obtained using the lower Mw PVP. These results demonstrate a simple method of producing blow spun silica nanofibers with defined variations of pore sizes by varying only the molecular weight of the PVP. In the adsorption process, the accessible mesopores improved the adsorption performance of large MB molecules.

The ceramic fibers can be obtained from different techniques. Due to the technological development, searches are performed to improve the existing fibers. Thus, recent studies have enabled the development of an unprecedented synthesis route for the production of nanofibers, the Solution Blow Spinning (SBS). In this context, the present work proposes to develop silica nanofibers doped with silver by the SBS method, evaluating parameters such as: silver content and acidification of solutions. The fibers were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results of XRD showed that the samples with 4% silver that were not acidified showed the most defined and intense characteristic peaks. The SEM showed the formation of fibers with diameters in the nanometer range independent of acidification or not of the solutions, with reduction of the agglomerates in the samples with 2% silver.
