Studies of electrospinning polystyrene or PEO from multiple solvents indicate that dipole moment, conductivity, and key solvent properties determine electrospinnability. Supaphol and coworkers considered 18 solvents for electrospinning polystyrene. Qualitatively, they found that solvents with high boiling point and high dipole moment that resulted in polymer solutions with high conductivity, low surface tension, and low viscosity led to fiber formation and minimized needle clogging (Jarusuwannapoom et al. 2005). Using PEO, smaller fibers were observed with solvents with higher dielectric constant (Son et al. 2004) and has been the focus of further investigation.
The dielectric constant of the solvent is critical in electrospinning. Practically, it is how much electrical charge the solvent is capable of holding which affects the surface charge density. Generally, higher dielectric constants are preferred for achieving uniform surface charge density that results in uniform nanofibers. The fiber size is also affected by the dielectric constant of the solvent. For example, an approximate twofold increase in poly(lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) fiber size was observed when the solvent was switched from hexafluoro‐2‐propanol (ε ~ 17) to chloroform (ε ~ 5). A similar trend has been observed in electrospinning polymers from mixtures of solvents to tune the dielectric constant; introducing a solvent with high dielectric constant generally reduces fiber size, for example PCL from mixtures of chloroform ε ~ 5 and DMF (ε ~ 17). An approximate threefold decrease in fiber diameter was achieved by increasing the volume fraction of DMF from 0% to 10%. However, changing solvents affects conductivity, surface tension, polymer chain conformation, and solvent volatility in addition to affecting dielectric constant. Therefore, the observed changes cannot be solely attributed to dielectric constant.
