ABSTRACT Electrospun nanofibers have attracted great attention as potential reinforcements in composite application due to their high specific surface area, high porosity, and versatility. Because the electrospun nanofibers exhibit relatively low mechanical strength due to low crystallinity and random alignment, many…
