Soft Inkjet Circuits: Rapid Multi-Material Fabrication of Soft Circuits using a Commodity Inkjet ...
summary
A process prints stretchable, ultra‑thin circuits on common materials using a commodity inkjet printer, swapping color cartridges for silver, PEDOT:PSS and PVP to achieve multi-material printing with separate heads. Printability is predicted by Fromm number Z instead of blind trial and error. Circuits land on TPU, textiles, tattoo paper and thermoplastic, take about 8–10 minutes to fabricate end to end, show fine traces and usable conductivity, and support sewing, soldering or transfer for working prototypes.
