The present study reports that a modified coaxial electrospinning process, which was successfully carried out to control the diameters of shellac fibers. With a Triton-X100 in ethanol as sheath working solution and shellac ethanol solution as a core electrospinnable fluid, the coaxial electrospinning processes can be conducted continuously and smoothly. Optical observations of the electrospinning process demonstrated that both a single-fluid and a coaxial process can be realized using the same apparatus. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy results demonstrated that the flow rate of sheath Triton X-100 solutions had a significant influence on the size of shellac fibers. As the sheath-to-core fluid flow rate ratio increased from 0 to 0.4, the shellac fibers' diameter decreased from 1.21 ± 0.41 µm to 0.19 ± 0.07 µm. The fibers' diameter (D, µm) has a clear linear relationship with the flow rate of sheath Triton X-100 solution (F): D = 1.08 - 2.25 F (R 2 =0.9851).
