The rapid volatilization of highly volatile solvents during electrospinning not only causes the concentration of the polymer solution to rise rapidly in a short period of time, but also causes the surface temperature of the fiber to decrease rapidly. The rapid volatilization of the solvent can reduce the surface temperature of the material even below 0 ℃. The concentration rise and the temperature decrease act together to enable the polymer solution to cross a double node line or a rotary node line and enter a metastable state or an unstable state from a stable state so as to cause phase separation, a polymer enrichment area and a solvent enrichment area are formed, the polymer enrichment area forms a fiber framework, and holes are formed in the solvent enrichment area.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the polymer may be polyglycolic acid, polylactic acid, polycaprolactone, polyoxymethylene, polystyrene, polymethylmethacrylate, polyethylene oxide, aliphatic polyester copolymer, polyamide, polycarbonate, polyurethane, polyethylene oxide, polyvinyl alcohol, cellulose acetate, polyacrylic acid, polyacrylamide, polyvinylpyrrolidone, or hydroxypropylcellulose.
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the inner/outer diameters of the inner tube of the coaxial spinneret are 0.2-2/0.4-2.6 mm, the inner/outer diameters of the outer tube of the coaxial spinneret are 0.5-3/0.7-3.6 mm, the flow rate of the gas or the second solvent in the inner tube of the coaxial spinneret is 0.2-1 mL/h, the flow rate of the polymer spinning solution in the outer tube of the coaxial spinneret is 0.5-1.5 mL/h, the voltage is 7-30 kV, the receiving distance is 5-30 cm, the ambient temperature is 10-40 ℃, the relative humidity is 10-90%, and the mass percentage concentration of the polymer spinning solution is 4-30% in the coaxial electrostatic spinning process.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the first solvent is at least two of dichloromethane, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, N-dimethylformamide, N-dimethylacetamide, acetone, isopropanol, formic acid, acetic acid, methanol, ethanol, butanol, carbon disulfide, acetone, and water.

The second solvent may be the same solvent as the first solvent or may be a different solvent.
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the first solvent is composed of a low boiling point solvent and a high boiling point solvent, wherein the boiling point of the low boiling point solvent is lower than 60 ℃, the boiling point of the high boiling point solvent is higher than that of the low boiling point solvent, and the volume ratio of the low boiling point solvent to the high boiling point solvent is 1: 1-8: 1.

In another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a nanofiber composite material with a hollow structure and a through-hole structure on the skin layer is prepared by a coaxial electrospinning method, which comprises the following steps:
(1) adding a certain amount of polymer into a corresponding solvent, and continuously stirring for 5-30 hours by using a magnetic stirring device to form uniform and stable polymer spinning solution with the concentration of 4-30% as a skin layer spinning solution.
(2) And (2) injecting the solution (polymer spinning solution) prepared in the step (1) into an outer tube of a coaxial spinneret, introducing air or a solvent into an inner tube, and performing coaxial electrostatic spinning under certain temperature and humidity conditions, wherein the spun nano-fibers are directly deposited on the surface of a receiving substrate.
(3) And (3) paving a covering layer on the surface of the nanofiber filtering layer spun in the step (2) to form the nanofiber composite filtering material with a sandwich structure of the base layer, the nanofiber filtering layer and the covering layer (as shown in figure 4).
The nanofiber membrane or nanofiber composite membrane of the present invention has a unique structure, and the nanofiber membrane or nanofiber composite membrane has a hollow structure and a skin layer with a through-hole structure is innovatively prepared by an electrospinning technology, and since air filtration air flows through the wall of the tube in a vertical direction (for example, in fig. 4, air flows through a base layer, a nanofiber filtration layer and a cover layer in sequence in a direction vertical to the membrane), the application of the nanofiber with only the hollow structure in the air filtration material cannot improve any of filtration efficiency, air resistance and service life; the nanofiber with the surface porous structure is applied to the air filter material, the specific surface area of the material is only singly increased, compared with the nanofiber with the smooth surface structure, the porous structure slightly improves the filtering efficiency, but has no improvement effect on air resistance and service life. The invention matches the hollow and skin layer with the structure of the through hole, but can generate unexpected chemical reaction, and obtains the nano fiber with innovative structure and brand new and excellent filtering effect.
The nanofiber filtering membrane with the hollow structure and the perforated hole on the skin layer has larger specific surface area, and the path of air passing through the nanofiber filtering membrane is more complicated during filtering, so that the interception efficiency of the nanofiber filtering membrane on particles in the air can be greatly improved, and the filtering efficiency of the filtering material can be improved; during filtering, the air passes through the fiber filtering membrane, besides the pores 2 among the fibers, the air resistance of the fiber filtering membrane can be reduced because the air also has the holes 5 through which the single fiber skin layer penetrates; during filtering, the particulate matter enters the fiber hollow part (namely the tubular cavity) 4 from the hole 5 penetrated by the fiber skin layer, collides with the inner wall of the fiber, and finally settles in the fiber hollow part 4, so that the hollow fiber has the functions of intercepting and storing the particulate matter, the saturated adsorption capacity of the filtering material to the particulate matter is improved, and the service life of the filtering material is prolonged. The application of the nanofiber in the air filtering material achieves a brand new technical effect, the filtering efficiency of the nanofiber is obviously improved, the air resistance is reduced, and more importantly, the service life of the nanofiber is prolonged.
The nanofiber filtration membrane/nanofiber composite filtration membrane and the method for producing the same according to the present invention will be further described with reference to specific examples.
