The mechanical attributes of the PLA, PU, PU/MWCNT, and PLA/PU/MWCNT conduits. Tensile properties measurement under 10 N tensile load and an extension rate of 1 mm/min at 37 °C. Compared to PLA/PU/MWCNT scaffolds, PLA (P < 0.05), PU (P > 0.05), and PU/MWCNT (P > 0.05) nanofibrous conduits had a lower tensile strength. UTS: ultimate tensile strength, Ɛb: elongation a break. Data are presented as mean SD, n = 3
