Poly(N-Isopropylacrylamide) Based Electrically Conductive Hydrogels and Their Applications [PDF]
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) based electrically conductive hydrogels (PNIPAM-ECHs) have been extensively studied in recent decades due to their thermal-responsive (leading to the volume change of hydrogels) and electrically conductive performance.
