Morphological and Thermal Properties of Poly(Vinyl Alcohol)/Layered Double Hydroxide Hybrid Nanocomposite Fibers

Figure 6

A schematic depicting the rapid thermogravimetric loss in the layered double hydroxide- (LDH-) filled fibers with respect to pure poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) fibers. The model predicts nonuniform sample heating by the formation of hot center layered double oxide (LDO) particles and their subsequent migration.
