The polyacrylonitrile(PAN)/poly (methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) blend fibers were prepared by wet-spinning technique and carbonized over the temperature range of 400-1000°C in nitrogen atmosphere. After carbonization of the blend fibers, the PMMA component removed and the PAN component left in the form of carbon nanofibers. Morphology of the carbon nanofibers were investigated via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the carbonization behavior of the fibers were examined via x-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman microspectrometry. The optimal condition made carbon fibers with great L/D ratio and diameter less than 200 nm. XRD and Raman spectra shows that the PAN/PMMA blend fibers treated at 600°C produced some graphite crystallite.

Quantification of individual phases within a multiphase amorphous material has been achieved using a newly developed technique based on X-ray powder diffraction. The quantification method was developed during a study of an amorphous silica–poly(methyl methacrylate) (SiO2–PMMA) hybrid nanocomposite. The efficiency of the method as a quantifying tool for individual phases was demonstrated for samples of SiO2–PMMA prepared either by polymerization of methyl methacrylate in the presence of amorphous SiO2or by mechanically mixing known quantities of the individual and pre-prepared SiO2and PMMA materials. The weight percentages of amorphous SiO2in the nanocomposites as determined by application of the new technique were analogously found to be 29%, a result that was supported by thermogravimetric analysis and helium picnometry measurements.

Background/Aim. Autopolymerized, or cold polymerized poly(methyl methacrylate) class of materials have a lower mechanical properties compared to hot polymerized poly(methyl methacrylate), due to a limited time of mixing before the polymerization process begins. The aim of this study was to test the effect of different relatively low nanosilica contents, in improving mechanical properties of the cold polymerized poly(methyl methacrylate). Methods. A commercially available autopolymerized poly(methyl methacrylate) denture reline resin methyl methacrylate liquid component was mixed with 7 nm after treated hydrophobic fumed silica and subsequently mixed with poly(methyl methacrylate) powder. Three nanosilica loadings were used: 0.05%, 0.2% and 1.5%. Flexural modulus and strength were tested, with one way ANOVA followed by Tukey?s test. Furthermore, zeta potential, differential scanning calorimetry, scaning electrone microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray analyses were performed. Results. Flexural modulus and strength of poly(methyl methacrylate) based nanocomposites were statistically significantly increased by the addition of 0.05% nano-SiO2. The increase in nanosilica content up to 1.5% does not contribute to mechanical properties tested, but quite contrary. The main reason was agglomeration, that occurred before mixing of the liquid and powder component and was proved by zeta potential measurement, and after mixing, proved by scanning electrone microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray analyses. Conclusions. Addition of 7 nm 0.05% SiO2 is the most effective in increasing flexural modulus and strength of autopolimerized poly(methyl methacrylate).
