Plot of tensile modulus and tensile strength versus fiber diameter. Tensile modulus increases with decreasing fiber diameter. These results can be attributed to the better molecular orientation and crystallinity in smaller fiber diameters. Larger than 2 lm, both tensile modulus and tensile strength appear invariant with fiber diameter. Reprinted with permission from [290]. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.
