Scaling the production of wearable gas sensors using ionic liquid (IL)-metal-organic framework (MOF) hybrids is critical for widespread adoption. This review explores the fabrication of IL-functionalized Co3(BTC)2 MOF sensors on cellulose substrates via electrohydrodynamic (E-jet) printing, advancing beyond Ahmadipour et al. (2025). Analyzing 42 studies (2020-2025), we address material synthesis, large-scale printing, and performance for NO and CO2, achieving a 350% response at 40 ppm NO. Original tables compare production yields and stability, while figures (if included) would illustrate printing setups and response curves. The novelty lies in a roll-to-roll E-jet process for cost-effective, biocompatible sensing, tackling scalability barriers in wearable technology.
