Abstract

Smart materials that can reverse one or more of their functional or structural properties according to the external stimulus are the most trending topic of our time. Many fields, including medicine, benefit from smart polymers, which are one of these smart materials. In this review, we will talk about synthetic piezoelectric polymers, which are members of the smart polymer family, and give an overview of their use in different medical fields and examine the points where they are most popular. In this study, our aim is to collect only synthetic piezoelectric polymers in a text and sample these most up-to-date studies in detail, unlike the reviews written in this field.
