Orientation and partial disentanglement in individual electrospun fibers : diameter dependence and correlation with mechanical properties
(American Chemical Society, 2015-06-29)
Electrospun fibers are versatile materials that exhibit unusual and tunable properties when studied at the single fiber level, including an exponential increase in modulus with a decreasing diameter toward the nanoscale. ...
Raman spectroscopy of individual poly(ethylene oxide) electrospun fibers : effect of the collector on molecular orientation
(Elsevier, 2016-09-06)
Electrospun fibers are complex polymeric materials with a typical diameter of a few
hundred nanometers that are often frozen in out-of-equilibrium states due to the fast solvent
evaporation and high elongational forces ...
Electrospinning of highly crystalline polymers for strongly oriented fibers
(American Chemical Society, 2020-09-23)
Electrospun nanofibers (NFs) often demonstrate an exponential increase in mechanical and other properties at reduced diameters. Molecular orientation emerges as a key parameter for the performance of amorphous and low ...
Quantifying polymer chain orientation in strong and tough nanofibers with low crystallinity : towards next generation nanostructured superfibers
(American Chemical Society, 2019-04-19)
Advanced fibers revolutionized structural materials in the second half of the 20th century. However, all high-strength fibers developed to date are brittle. Recently, pioneering simultaneous ultrahigh strength and toughness ...
