A breathable and waterproof membrane is made from a modified thermoplastic polyester elastomer. The breathable and waterproof membrane has a moisture permeability of greater than or equal to 25000 g/m.sup.2.Math.day. The modified thermoplastic polyester elastomer is formed from a thermoplastic polyester elastomer, a regenerated polyethylene terephthalate, and a compatibilizer. Based on a total weight of the modified thermoplastic polyester elastomer being 100 phr, a content of the regenerated polyethylene terephthalate is greater than 0 phr and up to 50 phr. Based on a total weight of the thermoplastic polyester elastomer being 100 wt %, the thermoplastic polyester elastomer includes 25 wt % to 75 wt % of hard segments and 25 wt % to 75 wt % of soft segments.

Disclosed herein are electrospun fibrous matrix and its production method. The method mainly includes the steps of, mixing a first polymer and a drug to form a first mixture, and sonicating the first mixture until a plurality of microparticles are formed with the drug encapsulated therein; and mixing the plurality of microparticles with a second polymer to form a second mixture, subjecting the second mixture to a wet electrospinning process to form the electrospun fibrous matrix. The thus-produced electrospun fibrous matrix is characterized by having a plurality of first and second fibrils woven together, in which each second fibril has a plurality of drug-encapsulated microparticles independently integrated and disposed along the longitudinal direction of the second fibril. Also encompassed in the present disclosure is a method for treating a wound of a subject. The method includes applying the present electrospun fibrous matrix to the wound of the subject to accelerate wound healing.
