In this study, 3D printing is coupled with interfacial polymerization to obtain electroactive hydrogels with complex and defined geometry. Conductive hydrogels are created through a two-step procedure: first a digital light processing 3D printing system is used to fabricate poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate 3D structure and then pyrrole is oxidized to polypyrrole (PPY), exploiting an interfacial polymerization mechanism through which PPY can be formed in the poly(ethylene glycol) matrix, thus creating a conductive phase.
