3D Printing of Batteries: Fiction or Reality?

Motivated by the request to build flexible, wearable and customizable batteries of any shape while maximizing the energy storage and electrochemical performances, additive manufacturing, also called 3D printing, appears as a cutting-edge revolutionary discipline.

Battery components such as electrodes, separator, electrolyte, current collectors and casing can be tailored with any shape, therefore allowing the future direct incorporation of batteries and all electronics within the final three-dimensional object.

Digital Mass Manufacturing of Electronics – Breaking the Mold

Continuous Laser Assisted Deposition. C.L.A.D. is technology developed for additive manufacturing based on the LIFT (Laser Induced Forward Transfer) technology. A material, evenly coated on a transparent carrier film, passes under a laser. The laser applies a short burst of energy to it. This releases perfectly consistent drops of material onto the substrate below. The material drops can then be sintered or cured inline, within the same machine. A great benefit is that this technology works for solder and polymers as well as for metals and ceramics. Up to six materials can be printed at the same time.

Flexible and Conformable Electronics for Next-Generation Devices

presentation by Shweta Argawala, Tenure-Track Assistant Professor, Aarhus University at ONLINE 3D Printing Electronics Conference (21 January 2021, 14:00 – 18:00 CET). REGISTER HERE to attend the conference

Moving forward biomedical devices will require materials and platforms that have Young’s modulus closer to human skin. Direct writing of electronics using functional inks on flexible, stretchable and biocompatible substrates will open doors for innovation in biomedical and health technology. This will tackle the issues of immune reactions and scarring of tissue that hamper the successful use of implantable devices for longer durations.

I will talk about our research on developing novel functional inks for electronic applications that can be directly written on unconventional substrates to enable next-generation devices. The focus is to understand the ink-substrate interactions to print homogeneous and high-resolution circuits.

I will also discuss various application areas, where printed electronics is pushing design innovation for sustainable and biodegradable electronics.

Electrically conductive polymers for additive manufacturing: current research at PoliTo

presentation by Valentina Bertana, Post-Doc researcher, Politecnico di Torino, at ONLINE 3D Printing Electronics Conference (21 January 2021, 14:00 – 18:00 CET). REGISTER HERE to attend the conference

The field of additive manufacturing, which in the last years has gained a lot of interest both from the commercial and the academic world, needs now a boost from the materials side. If materials with special properties as biocompatibility, high mechanical resistance or temperature resistance are already present on the market, materials with special functionalities are still waiting for first release. Especially as regards materials with electrically conductive properties, which would represent a breakthrough for 3D printed electronics. In this perspective, our research group at the department of Applied Science and Technology at Politecnico di Torino is studying novel materials to allow the additive manufacturing of electrical and electronic components. Among different tests, the photocurable resin based on PEDOT:PSS seems to be the most promising one. Some application examples will be also reported.

Block copolymers: a route for 4D printing

presentation by Claudia Delgado Simao, Teamleader at Eurecat – Technology Centre of Catalonia, at ONLINE 3D Printing Electronics Conference (21 January 2021, 14:00 – 18:00 CET). REGISTER HERE to attend the conference

4D printing is a methodology that makes use of a certain printed material property to change it’s final structure or chemistry along time. Block-copolymers (BCP) are synthetic polymer materials with tuned supramolecular interactions by design, useful to control it’s ability to self-assemble in segregated hydrophillic-hydrophonbic domains and create various functionalised superstructures. Here is presented the methodology for 4DP with BCPs and potential applications in health and energy applications.
