Fractionated crystallization, polymorphism and crystal transformation of poly (butylene adipate) confined in electrospun immiscible blend fibers with polystyrene
Abstract
Utilizing electrospun immiscible blend fibers of poly(butylene adipate) (PBA) and polystyrene (PS) and following coating by the high glass transition temperature poly(4- tert -butylstyrene) (P4tBS), confined PBA specimens in nanometer space were effectively prepared.

The thermal breakup of electrospun fibers technique has been successfully employed for PEO, PVDF, and PBA to investigate homogeneous/surface nucleation or fractionated crystallization, even without compatibilizers.
“The above-described technique has been successfully employed for other polymeric materials, such as PEO [ 64 , 65 ], PVDF [ 66 , 67 ], PBA [68] , in order to investigate homogeneous/surface nucleation or fractionated crystallization, even without the addition of compatibilizers.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
