Temperature-Controlled Reversible and Salt-Controlled Recoverable Double-Network Hydrogels with Ultrahigh Mechanical Strength, Stretchable Toughness
As one of the highly researched materials, hydrogel can be described as three-dimensional network of polymers which traps large quantity of water within their structures. Due to its low strength, many enhanced versions have emerged with better mechanical properties. DN hydrogels are one of them. The...
