Challenges, Prospects, and Emerging Applications of Inkjet‐Printed Electronics: A Chemist's Point of View

et al. 2022

Driven by the development of new functional inks, inkjet‐printed electronics has achieved several milestones upon moving from the integration of simple electronic elements (e.g., temperature and pressure sensors, RFID antennas, etc.) to high‐tech applications (e.g. in optoelectronics, energy storage and harvesting, medical diagnosis). Currently, inkjet printing techniques are limited by spatial resolution higher than several micrometers, which sets a redhibitorythreshold for miniaturization and for many applications that require the controlled organization of constituents at the nanometer scale. In this Review, we present the physico‐chemical concepts and the equipment constraints underpinning the resolution limit of inkjet printing and describe the contributions from molecular, supramolecular, and nanomaterials‐based approaches for their circumvention. Based on these considerations, we propose future trajectories for improving inkjet‐printing resolution that will be driven and supported by breakthroughs coming from chemistry. Please check all text carefully as extensive language polishing was necessary. Title ok? Yes

In order to overcome compatibility leakage between composite phases, which is a significant challenge in multidimensional composite applications, it is crucial to optimize the chemical nature of additives. The surface of basalt fiber (BF) was chemically enriched via biobased epoxy resin sizing and functional silanization process to improve its interfacial adhesion to the ecograde elastomeric polyurethane (EPU) matrix. The surface properties of BF were examined with the help of scanning electron microscopy X‐ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX) and Fourier‐transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses. Impacts of surface modifications were compared based on mechanical, morphological, thermomechanical, and melt‐flow behaviors of composites involving pristine and modified BF. Findings revealed that surface‐modified BF inclusions improved the tensile strength and Shore‐hardness values of composites. Tensile strength of EPU raised from 27.1 to 37.1 MPa after compounding with epoxy‐sized BF. Additionally, the resin‐coated BF incorporation exhibited a two‐fold increase in the tensile modulus of EPU. Thermomechanical response of EPU exhibited an increasing trend by BF inclusions regardless of treatment type. Glass transition temperature of EPU shifted to 5 units higher value with modified BF loadings. SEM investigations confirmed the increased interfacial interaction between the EPU matrix and surface‐sized BF. The chemically enriched surface of BF improves composite performance by improving adhesion at the EPU‐BF interface. The results of this study confirmed that enhanced interfacial adhesion led to performance improvements for BF‐loaded EPU composites.
