Abstract:
Conductive polymers are functional materials that have attracted increasing attention in biomedical applications owing to their ability to combine electrical properties, mechanical flexibility, and biocompatibility. Their π-conjugated electronic structure enables stable electrical conduction, while doping, chemical modification, and composite formation can improve their performance in physiological environments. Conductive polymers have been utilized in various medical technologies, including biosensors, neural interfaces, electrically controlled drug delivery systems, scaffolds for tissue engineering, wearable devices, and flexible bioelectronics. However, several challenges remain, such as long-term stability, brittle mechanical properties, and degradation under biological conditions of use. Further research on elastomeric materials, self-healing systems, and high-conductivity composites is expected to expand their potential applications in modern healthcare technologies. Overall, conductive polymers offer great prospects as innovative materials for next-generation biomedical devices.
