Surface phenomena such as adsorption, formation of colloids, heterogeneous catalysis, have varied applications spread in the industry. An important property to achieve efficiency in the processes of surface chemistry is the high ratio area/volume of the materials involved in each process. In search of this property, in conjunction with others, a large number of publications report the use of the electrospinning technique as having unique characteristics in the production of fibers, with diameters of the order of nanometers, and fibers aggregates, in the form of membranes or films, with high specific area. In this work an alloy consisted of selenium and gallium was added into an Ecovio® polymer solution before electrospinning. The effects of alloy concentration on the properties of the composite material (membranes) was investigated by means of thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR), SEM analysis, and PAS (UV-vis) spectroscopy. The formed composite shown dependency of alloy cristallinity and although it has not been directly measured the surface area seems to be increased. The thermogravimetric analysis evidenced an increase in the thermal stability of the composite material. Although the FTIR spectrosocopy was inconclusive as to the incorporation of the alloy into the polymer, the SEM morphological analysis shown that the particules of the alloy material were partialy or fully incorporated into the composite. XRD also evince the incorporation of the alloy into the polymer. Photoacoustic spectroscopy allowed the determination of gap energy in the composite, further evidence that the alloy was incorporated into the polymer.
