Highly Stretchable, Adhesive, and Conductive PEDOT Nanocomposite Hydrogels for High-Performance Flexible Bioelectronics.

ABSTRACT: Conductive hydrogels have emerged as excellent candidates for next-generation bioelectronic devices due to their skin-like properties and biocompatibility. However, their practical application remains limited by poor intrinsic adhesion, insufficient electrical conductivity, and the hydrophobic nature of conventional conductive fillers, which hinder the integration of multiple essential functionalities. Herein, an effective strategy is developed to fabricate conductive and water-soluble multifunctional nanofillers by employing tannic-acid-modified MXene as a template to direct the in situ polymerization of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT). The tannic acid-modified MXene not only introduces abundant catechol groups that improve hydrophilicity and dispersibility, but also contributes
