3D Printing of Conducting Polymer Hydrogels for Electrostimulation‐Assisted Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights nanosized inherently conducting polymers (ICPs) as promising ink constituents for 3D printing of conducting hydrogel (CH)‐based electrostimulation (ES) devices. ICP‐based ink formulation, 3D printing, and solidification strategies are discussed, along with the application of 3D‐printed ICP‐based CHs as ES platforms for regulating
