| Abstract | ||||
THE number of efforts in order to modify the properties of polymeric fibers by organic or inorganic particles has increased in recent times because of increasing interest of fiber research in hightech fiber applications. In addition to these attempts, the innovation of nanotechnology also leads to the development of nanoparticles for various end uses such as nanocomposite fibers. In this study Calcium oxide nanoparticles (CaO) were introduced into polyamide 6 (PA6) and drawn into filaments through a melt extrusion process. The effect of CaO nanoparticles on the thermal, structural, morphological and tensile properties of polyamide-CaO nanocomposites fibers was investigated by using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and mechanical properties, respectively. | ||||
