Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A study was conducted to demonstrate a method for electrospinning PMMA stereocomplex solutions and reveal the way these solutions behaved differently from regular PMMA solutions. It was demonstrated that the process of gelation affected the electrospinning of stereocomplex PMMA solutions. PMMA solutions were sealed in glass vials and kept at a set temperature for 30 minutes and after that the vials were tipped over to determine the solution as a liquid or a sol. It was observed that the gel-sol transition was about 22 °C higher when heated than the sol-gel transition temperature upon cooling. The solutions were transferred into a custom-built electrospinning setup and kept there until their temperatures reached the equilibrium at selected temperatures. The relationship between the concentration and the morphology of the spun fibers at 91 °C was investigated.
