Environmentally friendly polymeric materials and derivative technologies play increasingly important roles in the sustainable development of our modern society. Conducting polymer hydrogels (CPHs) synergizing the advantageous characteristics of conventional hydrogels and conducting polymers are promising to satisfy the requirements of environmental sustainability. Beyond their use in energy and biomedical applications that require exceptional mechanical and electrical properties, CPHs are emerging as promising contaminant adsorbents owing to their porous network structure and regulable functional groups. Here, we review the currently available strategies for synthesizing CPHs, focusing primarily on multifunctional applications in energy storage/conversion, biomedical engineering and environmental remediation, and discuss future perspectives and challenges for CPHs in terms of their synthesis and applications. It is envisioned to stimulate new thinking and innovation in the development of next-generation sustainable materials.
环境友好型聚合材料及其衍生技术在现代社会的可持续发展中发挥着越来越重要的作用。兼具传统水凝胶和导电聚合物优势特性的导电聚合物水凝胶（CPHs）有望满足环境可持续性的要求。除了在需要特殊机械和电气性能的能源和生物医学应用中使用外，CPHs 因其具有多孔网络结构和可调节的官能团而成为有前途的污染物吸附剂。在这里，我们综述了目前用于合成 CPHs 的策略，主要侧重于其在储能/转换、生物医学工程和环境修复方面的多功能应用，并讨论了 CPHs 在合成和应用方面的未来展望和挑战。预计这将激发新一代可持续材料开发的新思维和创新。
