To add new brand xml namespace use:

<?php
    $element
->setAttributeNS(
       
'http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/', // xmlns namespace URI
       
'xmlns:mynamespace',
       
'example.com/mynamespace'
   
);
?>

'http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/' URI is important
to be able to add  new namespaces !!!

Later you can use your namespace like:

<?php
    $element
->setAttributeNS(
       
'example.com/mynamespace',
       
'mynamespace:something',
       
'value'
   
);
?>
