Abstract:

Stimuli-responsive smart hydrogels have been considered to be highly potential in versatile applications in numerous fields, such as chemical sensors and/or actuators, chemical values, artificial muscle, controlled drug delivery systems and substance separations, for which rapid responsive characteristics are highly desired. Therefore, rapid response to environmental stimuli is critical for the versatility of such smart hydrogels. This review briefly introduces the design and fabrication of stimuli-responsive smart hydrogels with rapid responsive characteristics, including three main types of smart hydrogels designed with different structures, which are open-cell porous structure, comb-type structure, and microsphere-composited structure. This review provides valuable information and guidance for rational design of novel stimuli-responsive smart hydrogels with rapid responsive characteristics.

Key words: smart hydrogels, polymers, environmental stimuli-response, rapid responsive property
