Abstract
Electrosprayed polycaprolactone (PCL) microparticles are widely used in medical tissueengineering, drug control release delivery, and food packaging due to their prominent structuresand properties. In electrospraying, the selection of a suitable solvent system as the carrier of PCL isfundamental and a prerequisite for the stabilization of electrospraying, and the control ofmorphology and structure of electrosprayed particles. The latter is not only critical for diversifyingthe characteristics of electrosprayed particles and achieving improvement in their properties, butalso promotes the efficiency of the process and deepens the applications of electrosprayed particlesin various fields. In order to make it systematic and more accessible, this review mainly concludesthe effects of different solution properties on the operating parameters in electrospraying on theformation of Taylor cone and the final structure as well as the morphology. Meanwhile,correlations between operating parameters and electrospraying stages are summarized as well.Finally, this review provides detailed guidance on the selection of a suitable solvent systemregarding the desired morphology, structure, and applications of PCL particles.
