Novel biodegradable low- dielectric nanomaterials from natural polyphenols.

Biodegradable natural polymers and macromolecules for transient electronics have great potential to reduce the environmental footprint and provide opportunities to create emerging and environmentally sustainable technologies. Creating complex electronic devices from biodegradable materials requires exploring their chemical design pathways to use them as substrates, dielectric insulators, conductors, and semiconductors. While most research exploration has been conducted using natural polymers as substrates for electronic devices, a very few natural polymers have been explored as dielectric insulators, but they possess high dielectric constants.
