Identification of sagging in melt-electrospinning of microfiber scaffolds.

Melt-electrospinning is a cost-effective and flexible process to fabricate micro-scaled polymeric fibers. Melt-electrospun microfiber structures have been receiving considerable attention from various fields due to their numerous advantages. However, the application of melt-electrospinning is limited by various factors, such as the sagging behavior and unstable whipping motion of microfibers.
