Tuning the properties of electrospun polylactide mats by ethanol treatment
In the present work, we analyzed the changes in structure and mechanical properties of electrospun PLA mats induced by ethanol treatment. The amorphous PLA mats gained elasticity when immersed into ethanol (the elongation at break increased from ɛ~50% in air to ɛ~280% in ethanol) and partly retained...
