Blends of poly‐ϵ‐caprolactone (PCL) with two different molar masses are deliberately varied to change viscosity independent of polymer concentration enabling to separate viscosity and a direct concentration dependence of the fiber diameter in the electrospinning process. Multiple distributions as a result of jet splitting are determined and analyzed. The existence of essentially two modes in fiber diameter frequency distribution, the base mode and the split mode, is revealed, whereas the scaling laws for each mode can be validated according to the latest theory. Finally, the theoretical predicted upper limit 22 of the ratio of standard deviation of fiber diameter and average fiber diameter is validated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
