Fiber diameter and its distribution are one of the most important parameters related with the quality of electrospun web. The diameter of electrospun nanofibres is not uniform and the histograms of values are usually distributed differently. Analysis of literature sources showed that sometimes the distribution curves are similar to normal (Gaussian) distribution. Sometimes the distribution shapes are sophisticated and do not resemble this one. The problem arises because it is impossible to compare the average values of different measurement distributions, and a method with possibilities to compare the different results for estimation of nanofibre web quality is necessary. Yet, till now no standardized method for measurement of the diameter and evaluation of the distribution has been created. In this article, various distributions from literature sources and those of nanofibre diameter obtained during own experiments were analysed. Values of the nanofibre diameter are described by normal (Gaussian) and compound mathematical distributions. It was decided that the skew of distribution along with other characteristics can be used as criterion for web estimation and the diameter of nanofibres can be described by skewed normal (Gaussian) distribution when the coefficient of skewness is less than 0.5. The possibilities of estimation by compound distribution from a few normal distributions must be checked when the coefficient is higher.

Średnica włókien i jej rozkład są jednym z najważniejszych parametrów związanych z jakością elektroprzędzionego runa. Średnica elektroprzędzionych nanowłókien jest zróżnicowana, jak i histogramy średnic, które są zwykle zróżnicowane. Analiza literatury wykazała, że czasami rozkłady są podobne do rozkładów normalnych. Czasami jednak rozkłady są bardziej skomplikowane i nie przypominają rozkładów Gaussowskich. Problem powstaje ponieważ jest niemożliwe porównanie średnich wartości średnic wynikających z rożnych pomiarów. Pożądane jest dysponowanie metodą umożliwiającą porównanie wyników uzyskanych przez rożnych badaczy. W artykule rozważono rożne rozkłady przedstawione w literaturze przedmiotu, jak również uzyskane przez autorów tego opracowania podczas własnych badań. Uzyskane rozkłady przedstawiono poprzez proste rozkłady normalne oraz rozkłady złożone. Stwierdzono, że skośność rozkładu plus dodatkowe parametry mogą być stosowane jako kryterium dla ocen elektroprzędzionego runa. Stwierdzono, że średnica nanowłókien może być określona przez skośny rozkład normalny kiedy współczynnik skośności jest mniejszy niż 0.5. Możliwość oceny rozkładu średnic poprzez złożone rozkłady normalne należy przeprowadzić kiedy współczynnik skośności jest wyższy.
