Figure 3: Dependence of mechanical stability on the microstructure of the ice-templated V2O5 nanofibre scaffold.

Figure 3

The plot on the left side compares the stress-compression curves obtained for the ice-templated V2O5-1 with that of V2O5-0, the reference sample. The SEM images on the right side show that sample V2O5-1 (top image) comprises a regular, cuttlebone-like architecture, whilst sample V2O5-0 (bottom image) is much less ordered, although exhibiting the same porosity of 99.8 %.
