These synthesized polyesters were blended at a low level (10 wt%) with poly (lactic acid) PLA to prepare aligned fibers by electrospinning, coupled with a rotatory collector. The obtained fibers were extensively studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXS), employing synchrotron radiation. The incorporation of the PMSs on the PLA fibers did not significantly affect the fiber diameters, whereas the alignment was almost maintained. The crystallinity and thermal properties were also slightly modified with the addition of PMSs, and an increase in the degree of crystallinity and in the glass transition temperature of the blend compared to PLA was observed. Remarkably, the PLA\/PMSs fibers were more ductile due to the elastomeric character of PMS, with higher values of elongation at break and tensile strengths, and a smaller Young modulus in comparison with the PLA fibers. These modifications of the properties were more noticeable in the case of the acrylated PMS, which also provided readily available functional groups at the surface for further chemical reactions, such as the Michael addition or crosslinking processes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/polym14163342","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,17]],"date-time":"2022-08-17T03:15:27Z","timestamp":1660706127000},"page":"3342","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["The Incorporation of Low-Molecular Weight Poly(Mannitol Sebacate)s on PLA Electrospun Fibers: Effects on the Mechanical Properties and Surface Chemistry"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"V\u00edctor","family":"Hevilla","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Ciencia y Tecnolog\u00eda de Pol\u00edmeros (ICTP-CSIC), C\/Juan de la Cierva 3, 28006 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Platform for \u201cSustainable Plastics towards a Circular Economy\u201d (SUSPLAST-CSIC), 28006 Madrid, Spain"}]},{"given":"\u00c1gueda","family":"Sonseca","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Tecnolog\u00eda de Materiales, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Camino de Vera, s\/n, 46022 Valencia, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6330-0209","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Enrique","family":"Gimenez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Tecnolog\u00eda de Materiales, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Camino de Vera, s\/n, 46022 Valencia, Spain"}]},{"given":"Coro","family":"Echeverr\u00eda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Ciencia y Tecnolog\u00eda de Pol\u00edmeros (ICTP-CSIC), C\/Juan de la Cierva 3, 28006 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Platform for \u201cSustainable Plastics towards a Circular Economy\u201d (SUSPLAST-CSIC), 28006 Madrid, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0210-1246","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexandra","family":"Mu\u00f1oz-Bonilla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Ciencia y Tecnolog\u00eda de Pol\u00edmeros (ICTP-CSIC), C\/Juan de la Cierva 3, 28006 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Platform for \u201cSustainable Plastics towards a Circular Economy\u201d (SUSPLAST-CSIC), 28006 Madrid, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2061-0351","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marta","family":"Fern\u00e1ndez-Garc\u00eda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Ciencia y Tecnolog\u00eda de Pol\u00edmeros (ICTP-CSIC), C\/Juan de la Cierva 3, 28006 Madrid, Spain"},{"name":"Interdisciplinary Platform for \u201cSustainable Plastics towards a Circular Economy\u201d (SUSPLAST-CSIC), 28006 Madrid, Spain"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"963","DOI":"10.1016\/j.progpolymsci.2013.02.001","article-title":"Functional Materials by Electrospinning of Polymers","volume":"38","author":"Agarwal","year":"2013","journal-title":"Prog.
