Recent findings demonstrate that cellulose, a highly abundant, versatile, sustainable, and inexpensive material, can be used in the preparation of very stable and flexible electrochemical energy storage devices with high energy and power densities by using electrodes with high mass loadings, composed of conducting composites with high surface areas and thin layers of electroactive material, as well as cellulose‐based current collectors and functional separators. Close attention should, however, be paid to the properties of the cellulose (e.g., porosity, pore distribution, pore‐size distribution, and crystallinity). The manufacturing of cellulose‐based electrodes and all‐cellulose devices is also well‐suited for large‐scale production since it can be made using straightforward filtration‐based techniques or paper‐making approaches, as well as utilizing various printing techniques. Herein, the recent development and possibilities associated with the use of cellulose are discussed, regarding the manufacturing of electrochemical energy storage devices comprising electrodes with high energy and power densities and lightweight current collectors and functional separators.

“…Most of the electrode materials used in supercapacitors, including inorganic materials (such as carbon materials and metal oxides) and organic materials (such as conducting polymers of polyaniline and polypyrrole), are insoluble in solvents. [ 154 ] Additives (PVA, [ 155 ] PVDF, [ 156 ] and CMC [ 42 ] ) that can endow the electrode materials with dispersibility and the desired rheological properties (e.g., viscosity, sheer thinning behavior) are usually incorporated into the ink formulations. For example, Rangari et al.…”

“…They can be prepared and used under ambient conditions and exhibit excellent conductivity in the range of 10 −6 to 10 −3 S cm −1 . [ 166 ] A PVA‐based electrolyte is simply prepared by mixing PVA aqueous solution and the aqueous electrolyte (e.g., H 3 PO 4 , [ 166 ] H 2 SO 4 , [ 155 ] and LiCl [ 35 ] ) depending on the nature of the electrode materials. For example, a neutral electrolyte is suitable for metal oxides, whereas an acidic electrolyte is suitable for conducting polymers and carbon materials.…”

Emerging markets for wearable electronics have stimulated a rapidly growing demand for the commercialization of flexible and reliable energy storage and conversion units (including batteries, supercapacitors, and thermoelectrochemical cells). 3D printing, a rapidly growing suite of fabrication technologies, is extensively used in the above‐mentioned energy‐related areas owing to its relatively low cost, freedom of design, and controllable, reproducible prototyping capability. However, there remain challenges in processable ink formulation and accurate material/device design. By summarizing the recent progress in 3D‐printed wearable electrochemical energy devices and discussing the current limitations and future perspectives, this article is expected to serve as a reference for the scalable fabrication of advanced energy systems via 3D printing.

Additive manufacturing technology can help us to produce complex components/parts easily. It can be used to develop the parts with multi-material structures consisting of thermoplastic, thermosetting plastic, and ceramic fibers. This multi-material structure enhances the performance of lightweight polymer-based components. In this research work, poly-lactic acid (PLA) lattice (mono-material structure), PLA lattice filled with epoxy (bi-material structure), and PLA lattice incorporated with embedded milled glass fibers (MGFs) in an epoxy matrix (tri-material structure, TMS) were designed and developed by fused filament fabrication and solution casting methods. PLA lattice of 50% volume was fixed in all structures and 50% volume was filled with epoxy and MGFs. The dispersed MGFs in epoxy matrix were varied from 0, 2.5, 5, and 7.5 vol%. The mechanical properties were carried out by compression test, three-point bending test, and tensile test. The results revealed that 5 vol% of MGFs in the epoxy sample (TMS) exhibited improved mechanical performances compared to other samples. The cone-beam CT scan results confirmed the voids/porous free surfaces in the developed materials. The high-resolution scanning electron microscope microstructural evolutions in-terms of topography and fractured regions were also examined and reported.
