Ink-jet printing is poised to impact the manufacturing of devices that are particularly attractive for flexible electronics, as more suitable and printable fluids become available. The addition of surfacants in the preparation of the inks usually results in additional process steps, potentially increasing cost, as well as material waste, where the surfactants also often have a negative impact on specific properties of the printed features, such as comprising electrical conductivity of metallic structures. (...)In this work, we have successfully formulated a suitable ink derived from a mixture of terpineolin cyclohexanone as a more environmentally friendly option for the exfoliation of bulk graphite, which we elaborate upon in more detail here.

Purpose – There has been increasing interest in the development of printable electronics to meet the growing demand for low-cost, large-area, miniaturized, flexible and lightweight devices. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the electronic application of novel printable materials. Design/methodology/approach – The paper addresses the utilization of polymer nanocomposites as it relates to printable and flexible technology for electronic packaging. Printable technology such as screen-printing, ink-jet printing, and microcontact printing provides a fully additive, non-contacting deposition method that is suitable for flexible production.
