Summary
Cyanobiphenyl homologues are necessary liquid crystals to make use of in some functions since they exhibit intrinsic properties in a sure temperature interval together with room temperature. Not too long ago, producing composites with polymers and liquid crystals by electrospinning has drawn nice curiosity. Right here, cyanobiphenyl homologues of chain carbon numbers 5–8 and polyacrylonitrile have been spun utilizing single-needle electrospinning for the primary time. Morphological, optical, aligning, and thermal properties of spun fibers investigated. The thinnest and thickest fibers have been obtained in fibers involving cyanobiphenyl of chain carbon quantity 5 and 6, respectively contemplating the scanning electron microscopy photographs. Additionally, it was proved that each one the cyanobiphenyl members have been self-aligned all through the fibers as a core utilizing polarized optical microscopy. The existence of the cyanobiphenyl homologues within the construction of the fibers was introduced by infrared spectroscopy outcomes. As well as, the mass variation relying on temperature and calorimetric measurements have been studied. Part transition temperatures of the majority cyanobiphenyls and the fibers have been in contrast. The outcomes confirmed that cyanobiphenyl homologues of chain carbon numbers 5–8 and polyacrylonitrile have been in a position to be spun efficiently and the fibers had the potential for use in functions as a result of the bodily properties of the fibers have been enticing.
