Metallic nanoparticle inks are readily obtainable from the commercial market and are commonly used for fabricating conductive tracks and patterns due to their relatively higher electrical conductivity as compared to other types of inks. These metallic nanoparticle inks are made up of electrically conductive metallic nanoparticles suspended in liquid mediums, with particle size ranging from 1 to 100 nm. However, there are also diverse types of metallic nanoparticle inks in the market (for instance, silver nanoparticle inks, gold nanoparticle inks, and copper nanoparticle inks). Metallic nanoparticle inks of different material compositions can directly influence the final electrical, material, and mechanical properties of the printed patterns. This paper presents an overview of the different types of metallic nanoparticle inks used for the 3D printing of electronics. The strengths and weaknesses of each type of ink are critically reviewed. The challenges and potentials of metallic nanoparticle inks in 3D printed electronics are also discussed. Metallic Nanoparticle InksMetallic nanoparticle inks are suspensions of metallic nanoparticles in liquid mediums (see Figure 2a), in which individual metallic nanoparticle is encapsulated in a layer of insulating organic additives and stabilizing agents (see Figure 2b). The encapsulating organic additives and stabilizing agents help prevent the metallic nanoparticles from agglomeration, but at the same time, also impede the flow of electrons from particles to particles. Therefore, sintering processes are required to remove The three-dimensional (3D) printed electronics additive manufacturing industry sector has grown substantially in the past few years, and there is increasing demand for different types of metallic nanoparticle inks in electronics printing for various applications. Metallic nanoparticle inks are commonly used for fabricating conductive tracks and patterns due to their relatively high electrical conductivity as compared to other types of inks, and they can be further categorized into single-element metallic nanoparticle inks, alloy metallic nanoparticle inks, metallic oxide nanoparticle inks, and core-shell bimetallic nanoparticle (BNP) inks. It is critical to gain a deep understanding of the metallic nanoparticle inks used in 3D printed electronics as the material properties of these inks can directly affect the final electrical and mechanical properties of the printed patterns. This review presents an overview of the available metallic nanoparticle inks used for 3D printing of electronics, and critically reviews the strengths and weaknesses of each type of ink. Finally, the challenges of metallic nanoparticle inks in 3D printed electronics are also discussed along with the future outlook for 3D printed electronics.

A stretchable cotton-Ag nanowire-poly(dimethylsiloxane) (cotton-AgNWs-PDMS) conductor was fabricated by embedding the unique binary conductive network structure of cotton-AgNWs in PDMS through a simple dip-coating method. The binary conductive network structure was constructed based on cotton which had an interconnected and junction-free macroporous structure as the skeleton to support the two dimensional AgNWs network, leading to excellent electrical and mechanical properties.The conductivity of the stretchable conductor can be adjusted easily by varying the dip-coating cycles, which can reach a highest electrical conductivity of 56.82 S cm À1 . The cotton-AgNWs-PDMS composite can retain excellent conductance under large tensile strains (120%). Moreover, the excellent conductance is maintained up to 1000 stretching or bending cycles. Because of the high conductivity and excellent stretchability, together with the facile fabrication process, the cotton-AgNWs-PDMS stretchable conductor might be widely used as interconnects and electrodes for stretchable intelligent and functional devices.

“…The conductivity of the dried superhydrophobic fabrics was measured to be 37 Ω/cm. Hu et al [27] reported cotton fabric was dipped into the previously prepared ITO precursor solution (indium chloride and tin chloride) for 2 h under vacuum, dried at 60°C for 0.5 h and the same process was repeated three times. After calcination at 350-550°C for 4 h, the size of NTO particles over fabrics is changed to 20-30 nm resulting in conductive network.…”

Grafting or deposition is a powerful tool to modify the cellulose/textile surfaces permanently with precisely controlled structure in nanometer to micrometre scale, which leads to multifunctional applications. The properties that can be imparted through functionalization include superhydrophobicity, superoleopholicity, shape memory effect, high conductivity, drug storage/delivery, flame retardant, heat storage/release, and UV protection. Through this functionalization new applications for textile can be achieved such as waterproof textiles, textile actuators, fire resistive textiles, UV-protective materials, Band-Aids, transdermal batches, medical textiles, supercapacitor electrodes, separator of oil-water mixture, wearable textile electronics, conductive textiles, self-protection cloths. This chapter summarises recent publications about modifying the cellulose surfaces with biopolymers along with nanoparticles and their composites used for superhydrophobicity, oil-water separation, conducting fabrics and drug delivery devices leading to smart bandages. The main objective is to clarify the true significance of functionalization for each application. Thus, another important purpose of this chapter is to establish general guidelines for functionalization and propose future direction for cheaper devices that can elevate the textile industries.
