polyacrylamide hydrogel conductivity enhancement, the efficiency of mwcnt composition methods

Gels are a group of materials with absorption properties and porous structure, hydrogels are one of the most widely used types, which have high hydrophilicity and water absorption properties, which makes the economical and useful use of this group of materials in various uses such as they can be used as tags, sensors or various things, of course, in order to achieve these applications as best as possible, optimal conductivity in hydrogels is needed. conductivity in hydrogels is inherently low. in recent years, various efforts and methods have been made to improve the conductivity of hydrogels. including adding conductive nanoparticles, composite with polymers or other semi-conductive materials, etc. in this article, the addition of two components, a conductive polymer and a nanoparticle in different synthetic conditions, has been investigated to reach the best method and compare the methods.
