Abstract

In this study PVA/wheat gliadin blend fiber was prepared by wet spinning using DMSO as a solvent and acetone/methanol as a coagulant. The PVA content should be greater than 40% to demonstrate successful drawing. The maximum draw ratios of the blend fiber were 6, 7.5 and 8, when the PVA content was 40, 60 and 80%, respectively. The surface of the blend fiber became rougher and macrovoids were found when the content of gliadin was increased, this was due to the skin-core effect. The ultimate stress, breaking strain and modulus of the blend fiber were increased with an increase of the PVA content. The crystallinity of the blend fiber decreased when the gliadin content increased, the secondary structure of the gliadin however did not change in the presence of PVA. In order to increase the water stability of the blend fiber, further cross-linking was performed which also improved the mechanical properties of the blend fiber.
