▎ 摘　　要

In this paper, graphene oxide (GO) was successfully prepared by the modified Hummers' method and then uniformly dispersed in an aqueous solution containing a small amount of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as an adhesive. The solution was uniformly coated on the surface of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers and then the fibers were pre-oxidized at 240 degrees C for 20 min in the air. The pre-oxidation degree of PAN fibers and fibers coated with different contents of GO was analyzed by the Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). In addition, the surface and cross-section of PAN fibers before and after pre-oxidation were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The experimental results showed that the presence of GO coatings significantly improved the pre-oxidation degree of PAN fibers, at the same time, the pre-oxidation degree of PAN fibers increased with the increase of GO contents from 0.2 to 1.0 mg ml(-1). The cross-section morphology of the pre-oxidized PAN fibers revealed that the degree of pre-oxidation inside fibers was uniform. This was because the GO coatings acted as a medium to transfer heat, removing the heat released during the pre-oxidation process and increasing the pre-oxidation degree.
