Effect of the flow rate and air gap on inter-pore size of different materials. (A) Effect of the flow rate (0.05–1.2 mL/h) and air gap (25 and 28 cm) on inter-pore size of Alginate/PEO blended electrospun scaffolds after crosslinking and washing with calcium chloride (1% Alginate + 4% PEO); (B) effect of the flow rate (1.5–4.5 mL/h) and air gap (18 and 25 cm) on inter-pore size of PCL and PCL/Alginate blended electrospun scaffolds (20% PCL, 20% PCL + 0.5% Alginate, 20% PCL + 1% Alginate); (C) effect of the flow rate (1.5–4.5 mL/h) and air gap (18 and 25 cm) on inter-pore size of PEOT/PBT and PEOT/PBT /Alginate blended electrospun scaffolds (14% PEOT/PBT, 14% PEOT/PBT + 0.5% Alginate, 14% PEOT/PBT + 1% Alginate).
