Abstract
In this paper, we report on the structural and electrical properties of graphene oxide (GO) incorporated Nylon66 (N66) composite nanofibers prepared via electrospinning technique. Different types of composite nanofibers were electrospun by varying the weight percentage of GO in the polymer solution. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, as well as current - voltage (I - V) measurements were used to characterize the N66/GO composite nanofibers. The morphology of the N66/GO composite nanofibers exhibited densely arranged mesh-like ultrafine nanofibers which were strongly bound in between the main fibers. The I - V characteristics of the N66/GO composite nanofibers demonstrated that the blending of GO in to N66 nanofibers led to a dramatic improvement of the electrical conduction compared to that of pristine N66 nanofibers which can be utilized for the various technological applications.
