Abstract
Hydrogels have been developed rapidly in recent years because of their great application prospects in biomedicine and intelligent devices. The excellent performance of hydrogels is very important for their applications. Introducing divalent metal ions (M2+) into hydrogels is an effective method to improve the performance of hydrogels. M2+ can interact with functional groups of polymers to affect the structures and properties of hydrogels. Here, we review the synthesis and theoretical simulation of M2+-hydrogels, the effect of M2+ on hydrogels and their applications in energy storage, sensing, biomedicine, resource utilization and environmental remediation. The challenges of M2+-hydrogels are also discussed. We hope that this review can provide ideas for the preparation of multifunctional hydrogels and point out the important role of M2+ in the development of hydrogels.
期刊介绍：
