“…The chemical stimulus contains the pH value, chemical agents, and ions, and it responds to the interaction between the functional groups contained in the polymer chain and the solvent. The different response behaviors of hydrogels can be divided into the several types [ 11 ], like temperature-sensitive hydrogel [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ], pH-sensitive hydrogel [ 6 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ], ionic strength hydrogel [ 19 ], glucose sensing hydrogel [ 25 ], and light-sensitive hydrogel [ 26 ]. A pH-sensitive hydrogel is a polymer hydrogel that can change in volume with changes in the environmental pH and ionic strength.…”
