Wide-angle x-ray diffraction (WAXD) patterns that show mesophases in core-sheath bicomponent fibers and amorphous fibers are presented in section 1.1 of the article. Section 1.2 presents molecular dynamics simulations and scattered intensity calculations of stretched P3HB chains. Sections 1.3–1.6 summarize WAXD and small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) data analysis from a tensile study of melt-spun P3HB fibers. Azimuthal profiles are extracted from 2D WAXD patterns at various angular regions and the positions of equatorial reflections and corresponding d-spacings are summarized. Additionally, the extracted structural parameters from SAXS images are summarized. The tensile stress calculations, crystal orientation calculations, applied intensity corrections, calculations of long spacings, coherence lengths and lamellar diameters are explained in the methods subsections 2.3.1–2.3.7. WAXD and SAXS measurements of P3HB fibers were recorded on a Bruker Nanostar U diffractometer (Bruker AXS, Karlsruhe, Germany). The recorded WAXD/SAXS patterns were analyzed with the evaluation software DIFFRAC.EVA (version 4.2., Bruker AXS, Karlsruhe, Germany) and python codes.
