The Influence of Branching and Intermolecular Interactions on the Formation of Electrospun Fibers

The implications of chain topology and intermolecular interactions on the electrospinning process were investigated for linear and randomly branched polymers. Empirical correlations were developed based on solution rheological measurements that predict the onset of electrospun fiber formation and a...
