Roughness and Fiber Fraction Dominated Wetting of Electrospun Fiber-Based Porous Meshes

Roughness and Fiber Fraction Dominated Wetting of Electrospun Fiber-Based Porous Meshes

Wettability of electrospun fibers is one of the key parameters in the biomedical and filtration industry. Within this comprehensive study of contact angles on three-dimensional (3D) meshes made of electrospun fibers and films, from seven types of polymers, we clearly indicated the importance of roug...
