Different solution properties are plotted against the total acid-acyl contents (A.A.E.A.) for (a) conductivity, (b) pH, and (c) surface tension. The approximate regimes of fibril morphology are highlighted in each graph. For (b) and (c), a pair of blue lines are drawn to enclose the range of conditions which resulted in the formation of straight fibers. It is to note that for G10-A70, the A.A.∶E.A. ratios of 1, 1.5 and 4 were tested, and this can be seen as the increase in conductivity in (a).
