Advancements in 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) inks for printed optoelectronics: A comprehensive review

The development of e-textiles necessitates the creation of highly conductive inks that are compatible with precise inkjet printing, which remains a key challenge. This work presents an innovative, syringe-based method to optimize a novel bio-sourced silver ink for inkjet printing on textiles. We investigate the relationships between inks’ composition, rheological properties, and printing behavior, ultimately assessing the electrical performance of the fabricated circuits. Using Na–alginate and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the suspension matrix, we demonstrate their viscosity depends on the component ratios. Rheological control of the silver nanoparticle-laden ink has become paramount for uniform printing on textiles. A specific formulation (3 wt.% AgNPs, 20 wt.% Na–alginate, 40 wt.% PEG, and 40 wt.% solvent) exhibits the optimal rheology, enabling the printing of 0.1 mm thick conductive lines with a low resistivity (8 × 10−3 Ω/cm). Our findings pave the way for designing eco-friendly ink formulations that are suitable for inkjet printing flexible antennas and other electronic circuits onto textiles, opening up exciting possibilities for the next generation of E-textiles.

Rheological Properties and Inkjet Printability of a Green Silver-Based Conductive Ink for Wearable Flexible Textile Antennas

Given their exceptional performance, plastic packaging products are widely used in daily life, and the dramatic expansion in plastic packaging waste (PPW) has exacerbated environmental problems. Many countries have enacted laws and developed recycling technologies to manage plastic packaging waste in consideration of the nature of PPW as both garbage and a resource. As the world’s largest producer and consumer of plastics, China has also taken measures to address this issue. This paper presents the latest management regulations and recycling strategies for PPW in China. Based on an analysis of the current management status of PPW and recycling technologies and their carbon emission impacts, some management suggestions and a comprehensive full-chain recycling process were put forward. We supposed that management challenges that need to be overcome in the future can be solved through the improvement of green designs for plastic packaging, manufacturing technology updates, consumption concept changes, and the high-value utilization of PPW. This paper aims to provide valuable references for government decisions on PPW management and, furthermore, to set up an economically sensible and industrially feasible PPW solution and boost the development of PPW recycling.

An Overview of Management Status and Recycling Strategies for Plastic Packaging Waste in China

Abstract Printed electronics (PE) is one of the most dynamic technologies in the world. It proposes low-cost electronic network production in flexible substrates by numerous printing techniques, (screen printing, gravure, offset, flexographic, and inkjet printing), used in various industries. In PE, ink pigments are replaced by metallic particles or precursors that transmit electrical conductivity to the printed patterns such as carbon, polymers and conductive pigments. Conductive inks play an important role in printed electronics, and despite the number of conductive ink types available on the market, there are still issues to be addressed. Some of these restrictions include the use of toxic chemical reagents and solvents and complicated manufacturing protocols, which often make the industrialization of conductive inks an even more distant goal. In particular, conductive inks based on silver nanoparticles, Graphene and PEDOT:PSS are widely studied thanks to their high electrical conductivity. On the other hand, there is still work to be done to show the interest of inks based on phthalocyanine pigments, in particular copper phthalocyanine. Nevertheless, problems related to stability, dispersion and annealing temperature often limit the application of these four types of fillers. In this review, we present general information on available conductive fillers used for the formulation of conductive inks, focusing on metallic particles, carbon fillers, pigments and polymers. The influence and technical requirements of the regularly used printing techniques, as well as the post-processing treatments to achieve the targeted performance in the obtained inks have been discussed. In addition, the surface characteristics of the various types of extensible and flexible substrates used in portable electronics are described. Moreover, some types of printed flexible electronic components as well as notable applications of electronic textiles in various sectors are exhibited. Next, the major challenges for the manufacturing of printed flexible electronics and recommendations for future research are discussed in this review

Formulation of conductive inks printable on textiles for electronic applications: a review

The properties of materials used in building are enhanced by adding nanoparticles for improve energy efficiency. The objective of this study is to offer both numerical and analytical modeling methods of the thermal conductivity and mechanical property of composite materials. Various mineral charges were employed to reinforce the organic matrices of saturated polyester resin (UPR) with calcium carbonate (CaCo3) and expanded perlite particles. The study employs the finite-element software COMSOL to conduct a numerical investigation of thermal transport in an elementary cell. The purpose is to ascertain the thermal conductivity of composites and examine the impact of contact resistance and the volume fraction of nanoparticles on the effective thermal conductivity. The results indicate that the numerical model proposed is consistent with the Hashin-Shtrikman analytical model and experimental measurements. In another hand, the mechanical property is computed based on Mori-tanaka analytical model of homogenization and finite element method by Digimat-MF/FE, which gives enhanced elastic behavior of composite in function of volume fraction of nanoparticles, with high Young modulus and low Poisson ratio. The results indicate the performance of nanoparticles in improving thermomechanical behavior of building materials, and also in other applications.
