Characterization of electrospun polymer fibers using polarized infrared, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED)
Kakade et al. first reported that electrospun poly (ethylene oxide) fibers collected from gapped, counter electrodes are not only macroscopically aligned but also have polymer chains aligned parallel to the fiber axis.
