On the importance of fiber curvature to the elastic moduli of electrospun nonwoven fiber meshes

Adequate mechanical integrity of nonwoven fabrics is generally a prerequisite for their practical usage. Nonwoven fiber mats of poly(trimethyl hexamethylene terephthalamide) (PA 6(3)T) with average fiber diameters from 0.1 to 3.6 microns were electrospun from solutions in dimethylformamide and formi...
