Abstrakt: Electrically conductive hydrogels are highly hydrated 3D networks consisting of a hydrophilic polymer skeleton and electrically conductive materials. Conductive hydrogels have excellent mechanical and electrical properties and have further extensive application prospects in biomedical treatment and other fields. Whereas numerous electrically conductive hydrogels have been fabricated, a set of general principles, that can rationally guide the synthesis of conductive hydrogels using different substances and fabrication methods for various application scenarios, remain a central demand of electrically conductive hydrogels. This paper systematically summarizes the processing, performances, and applications of conductive hydrogels, and discusses the challenges and opportunities in this field. In view of the shortcomings of conductive hydrogels in high electrical conductivity, matchable mechanical properties, as well as integrated devices and machines, it is proposed to synergistically design and process conductive hydrogels with applications in complex surroundings. It is believed that this will present a fresh perspective for the research and development of conductive hydrogels, and further expand the application of conductive hydrogels.
