Abstract

Abstract: Smart hydrogels represent a class of polymer materials with significant application potential. This article employs a personification approach, presenting the material through an imaginative tour of the “Future Museum of Smart Hydrogels”. It introduces the fundamental concepts, classifications, and characteristics of smart hydrogels, along with their applications in biomedical fields, environmental remediation, soft actuation, and food safety. By adopting this engaging narrative style, the article aims to enhance readers' understanding of smart hydrogel materials while fostering scientific literacy.

Key words: Smart hydrogels, Popularization of science, Biomedicine, Environmental remediation, Actuators, Smart packaging
