Abstract

Abstract: The article represents a new production method based on polylactic acid for electronic devices. The originality of the proposed method is the replacement of environmentally unfriendly binders currently used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards with biodegradable polymers. We focused on materials based on renewable raw materials, which can be completely recycled to safe chemicals or reused without deep recycling in chemical or biochemical industries. Also, the proposed material biodegrades naturally into environmental substances. This approach has great potential for practical industrial uses, especially in the light of the "green chemistry" and "circular economy" concepts. Besides, the described materials are a promising base for creating new composite materials for biodegradable electronics.
