The escalating demand for sustainable industrial practices has driven the exploration of innovative materials, prominently exemplified by biodegradable electrospun membranes (BEMs). This review elucidates the pivotal role of these membranes across diverse industrial applications, addressing the imperative for sustainability. Furthermore, a comprehensive overview of biodegradable materials underscores their significance in electrospinning and their role in minimizing the environmental impact through biodegradability. The application of BEMs in various industrial sectors, including water treatment, food packaging, and biomedical applications, are extensively discussed. The environmental impact and sustainability analysis traverse the lifecycle of BEMs, evaluating their production to disposal and emphasizing reduced waste and resource conservation. This review demonstrates the research about BEMs toward an eco-conscious industrial landscape for a sustainable future.

“…The yarn being spun discharged from the spinning needle is specifically attracted and segmented by the persistent high‐voltage external electric field; meanwhile, the solvent instantly dissipates from the yarn. The fluid produces small‐diameter fibres due to electrostatic repulsion and stretching combined with solvent volatilization [17]. Further, these fibres are randomly organized on the accumulating plate to generate spun fibres even in the nano‐range.…”

“…Table 1 provides an overview of the research background on piezo-resistive sensors. According to Table 1, the main parameters affecting the sensing performance of the sensor are the substrate material [11][12][13] (e.g., twocomponents room temperature vulcanizing silicone (Silicone RTV2), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), Ecoflex, and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)), sensory element materials (e.g., graphene, [14][15][16] graphite, [17,18] carbon nanotubes (CNTs), [19][20][21][22][23] nanoparticles and nanowires [24] ), manufacturing method (e.g., 3D printing, [25] mixing, [8,17,26,27] coating [14,28] and layer compositing [3,18] ), and the structure of the sensor (e.g., conventional material, re-entrant auxetic structures, [8,18,29] constant Poisson's ratio (CPR) auxetic structures [17] and planar isotropic auxetic structures [30] ). The fourth case shows the connection between mechanical and electronic properties.…”

Production of piezo‐resistive auxetic sensors is usually carried out through mixing and coating methods. Although these methods are beneficial, Young's modulus of mixed sensors becomes high because of using a high percentage of sensing elements while the durability of coated sensors gets low due to the separation of sensing elements from the sensor surface. This article presents a new core–shell metamaterial model to address the mentioned problems. The shell and the core are produced of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) rubber and a mixture of PDMS/graphite powders (73.45 wt% graphite powders), respectively. A finite element model is developed via COMSOL software to predict the electromechanical behaviors of the created sensor and verified by an experimental study. Scanning electron microscope imaging is conducted to detect the separations of the graphite particles. The main important feature of this meta‐sensor is to possess a linear sensitivity due to having zero Poisson's ratio. The advantage of this method is that Young's modulus of the sensor does not decrease (unlike the mixing method), and the sensor‐coated particles do not separate from the sensor after a while (unlike the coating method). The introduced model has advantages that promote potential applications such as using sensory gloves to detect, for instance, human hand movements.
