The combination of biodegradability and biocompatibility makes chitosan a principal bioresourced material in biomedical engineering, wearable technology, and medical diagnostics, particularly for integration in human interfaces for soft electronic applications. However, this requires the introduction of soft electronic circuits with the capability of recycling the functional materials, while biodegrading the substrate. This paper presents the development and characterization of biodegradable soft circuits that are constructed using stretchable and flexible substrates from plasticized chitosan and conductive functional wiring from recyclable silver nanowires (AgNWs). The chitosan substrate demonstrates tunable mechanical properties with a maximum stretchability of ∼116%, in addition to desirable characteristics such as transparency, breathability, and controlled degradation. The plasticizing effect of glycerol reduces the rigidity associated with pure chitosan and imparts flexibility and stretchability to the AgNW-chitosan-glycerol (AgNW-Chi-Gly) composite. The AgNWs embedded in the Chi-Gly matrix are highly conductive, and their functionality in soft electronic devices such as strain sensors and electromyography (EMG) sensors is demonstrated. We show that the soft chitosan-based substrates can be subject to biodegradation at the end of their operational lifespan. The AgNWs can be recycled and reused, enhancing the overall sustainability of such soft electronic devices.
