Cover: The image shows electrospun fibers based on poly(lactic acid)/polyaniline blends with diameters from 90 to 1000 nm. The structural characteristics of the fibers are compared to cast films by scanning electron microscopy, small‐angle X‐ray scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, and atomic force microscopy. It is found that the electrospinning process governs the crystal structure of the fibers and strongly affects blending properties. Further details can be found in the article by Paulo H. S.
