Abstract

Nonwoven biodegradable materials are promising high-performance sorbents for oil spills cleanup. Nonwoven materials differing in characteristics (fiber diameter, fabric thickness, packing density) were prepared by electrospinning of polylactide solutions in hexafluoroisopropanol, chloroform, and dichloromethane. The mean fiber diameter varies from 2.3 to 6 μm, and the packing density, from 7.5 to 23%. In all the nonwoven materials, polylactide is in the amorphous state, whereas the initial polymer is partially crystalline. The nonwoven materials are highly hydrophobic and rapidly absorb oil. The sorption capacity of the samples increases with an increase in the viscosity of the sorption medium and with a decrease in the packing density of fibers in the fabrics, reaching 170 g g–1.
