Conductive hydrogels (CHs) refer to new gel materials composed of hydrogel materials and conductive additives. Compared with other gel materials, conductive hydrogels have the advantages of good mechanical processing performance, good conductivity, good water absorption, good ductility, and good biocompatibility, and have broad applications in electronic and electrical, medical, robotics and other fields. prospect.

There are many types of conductive hydrogels. According to different compositions, they can be divided into conductive metal oxide hydrogels, conductive polymer hydrogels, conductive carbon-based hydrogels and conductive biological hydrogels. Conductive polymer hydrogels (CPHs) have high tensile properties, flexibility and biocompatibility, and are expected to be used in the field of flexible electrochemical energy storage in the future. They are currently the most studied conductive hydrogels.

According to the “2023-2028 China Conductive Hydrogels (CHs) Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report》shows that conductive hydrogels have broad application prospects in electronic and electrical, medical, robotics and other fields. In the electronic and electrical fields, conductive hydrogels can be used to manufacture flexible sensors, flexible electronic products, etc.; in the medical field, conductive hydrogels can be used to manufacture medical equipment required for neuroelectric stimulation therapy, including pacemakers and analgesics. pacemakers, etc.; in the field of robotics, conductive hydrogels can be used to manufacture soft robots. Benefiting from the accelerated development of downstream industries, the market demand for conductive hydrogels is expected to grow.

In recent years, my country’s research and development of conductive hydrogels has been enthusiastic and has made many new progress. In April 2023, the research team of Dr. Xu Lizhi, Assistant Professor of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU), successfully prepared a new type of conductive hydrogel material using a highly connected nanofiber network. The material has excellent flexibility and conductivity. It has great advantages and is expected to be used as implant-grade medical materials. In the future, with in-depth research and technological advancement, the application scope of conductive hydrogels will be further expanded.

At present, my country’s conductive hydrogel industry is in its infancy, and there are only a small number of companies with R&D and production capabilities. Watt Co., Ltd., Haidongfu Technology, and Vives Medical are the major players in my country’s conductive hydrogel market. In recent years, many scientific research institutions such as the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the University of Hong Kong, the National University of Defense Technology, Shenzhen University of Technology, Beijing University of Chemical Technology, Southeast University, and Southwest Jiaotong University have joined the research and development track of conductive hydrogels. In the future, as the transformation of scientific and technological achievements accelerates, my country Conductive hydrogels are expected to achieve industrial development.

Industry analysts said that conductive hydrogels have excellent performance and are widely used. In the future, as downstream demand continues to grow, its industry development trend will be Keep improving. At present, my country’s conductive hydrogel industry is still in its infancy, focusing on laboratory research and development. In the future, with the continued efforts of local enterprises and scientific research institutions, its industrialization process will be accelerated.
