Abstract
Stimuli-responsive polymer gels can drastically change their volume in response to various external physical and chemical stimuli. The smart polymer gels for specific chemical substances have been extensively studied as applications for molecular recognition or supramolecular chemistry in the material sciences toward intelligent materials. This review article highlights recent advances in the molecular design of stimuli-responsive polymer gels triggered by molecular recognition, especially by the recognition of ionic species.
