Green electronics made from degradable materials are gaining attention due to the environmental and health threats posed by electronic waste. Nanocellulose, a novel material with biodegradability and other advantageous properties, is extensively used for various industrial applications. This review focuses on the development of conductive materials on nanocellulose substrates for high-performance green electronics, highlighting the advantages of nanocellulose over conventional paper substrates. Fabrication strategies for producing conductive patterns on different types of nanocellulose substrates are discussed, along with emerging engineering applications for green electronics.
Green electronics made from degradable materials have recently attracted special attention, because electronic waste (e-waste) represents a serious threat to the environment and to human health worldwide. Among the novel materials used for sustainable technologies, nanocelluloses containing at least 1D in the nanoscale range (1-100 nm) have been widely exploited for various industrial applications owing to their inherent properties, such as biodegradability, mechanical strength, thermal stability, and optical transparency. This review highlights recent advances in research on the development of patterns for conductive material on nanocellulose substrates for use in high-performance green electronics. The advantages of nanocellulose substrates compared to conventional paper substrates for advanced green electronics are discussed. Importantly, this review emphasizes various fabrication strategies for producing conductive patterns on different types of nanocellulose-based substrates, such as cellulose nanofiber (CNF), (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)oxyl(TEMPO)-oxidized CNF, regenerated cellulose, and bacterial cellulose. In the latter part of this review, emerging engineering applications for green electronics such as circuits, transistors/antennas, sensors, energy storage systems, and electrochromic devices are further discussed.
