Abstract
Hydrogels In article number 2207587, Ji Liu and co-workers subject a hydrogel material featuring distinct 2D lamellar structure to high-speed impact. The synergistic contribution from both the lamellar structure and robust interfacial interaction endows the hydrogel materials with unprecedented impact-resistance characteristics.
