A mechanically adaptive hydrogel with a reconfigurable network consisting entirely of inorganic nanosheets and water

Inorganic soft materials are an attractive concept but challenging to make. Here the authors have developed a hydrogel consisting of inorganic nanosheets (14 wt%) and water (86 wt%) that undergoes thermally induced reversible and abrupt changes in its internal structure and mechanical elasticity (23...
