Abstract:Hydrogels with polymer networks formed through physical interactions have received attention because of their post‐moldability and self‐healing properties upon physicochemical stimulation. Although hydrogels become fragile without covalent crosslinking, poly(N‐acryloyl‐glycinamide) (PNAGA) hydrogels, which are formed through hydrogen bonding among PNAGA molecules, have recently demonstrated exceptional strain. In this study, we prepared a series of PNAGA hydrogels with different molecular weights and constant … Show more
