Conducting polymers (CPs) have emerged as promising materials for gas sensors due to their organic nature coupled with unique and versatile optical, electrical, chemical, electrochemical properties. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in conducting polymer-based sensors. First, fundamental sensing mechanisms CPs-based are elucidated, covering diverse transduction modes including electrochemical, chemiresistive, piezoelectric, field-effect transistor-based sensing. Next, various types employed sensors, such polypyrrole, polyaniline, polythiophene, composites introduced, emphasis on synthesis methods, structural characteristics, response Finally, wide range applications these is discussed, spanning industrial process control, environmental monitoring, food safety, biomedical diagnosis, other fields, well existing issues long-term stability humidity interference, summary biocompatibility regulatory standards conductive provided. By integrating insights from mechanisms, materials, applications, this offers holistic understanding It also highlights future research directions, device miniaturization, AI-assisted identification, multifunctional integrated systems, wearable flexible sensor platforms, enhanced sensitivity, selectivity, on-site detection capabilities.
