“…The swelling degree of the semi-IPN hydrogels in saline solutions was appreciably decreased as compared with the values measured in deionized water. This well-known phenomenon commonly observed in the swelling of ionizable hydrogels [31] was often attributed to the charge screening effect of the addition cations. Fig.…”

“…[ 23] Calculation indicates that not all the fixed charges inside the hydrogel are effective in hydrogel volume transition. The charge distribution of hydrogels also strongly affects the effective charge density and thus the volume transition behaviors.…”

“…Stimuli-sensitive hydrogels have the capability to change their swelling behavior, permeability, or mechanical strength in response to external stimuli such as small changes in pH, ionic strength, and temperature. [6,7] It has been shown that the swelling and shrinking of weak polyelectrolyte hydrogels in salt solutions are independent of the chemical species of salt ion, [8] whereas the swelling and shrinking behaviors of strong polyelectrolyte hydrogels are found to depend on the counterion species. [1,2,5] The charge of the hydrogels is important for dependence of their swelling and shrinking behaviors on the surrounding media.…”
