Novel nano heterogeneous structure hydrogels with mechanically robust, extensive stretching and highly swelling

Stimuli-responsive hydrogels that can change their properties as a result of external stimuli have shown great promise in various applications, but it is still a great challenge to simultaneously provide hydrogels with excellent mechanical properties and significant response. Herein, we propose a facile synthesis of smart PAAm based hydrogels with highly elastic and swellable by introducing the activated nanoparticles into the hydrogel networks....
