Abstract
Janus structure hydrogels (JSHs) are novel materials. Their primary fabrication methods and various applications have been widely reported. JSHs are primarily composed of Janus particles (JNPs) and polysaccharide components. They exhibit two distinct physical or chemical properties, generating intriguing characteristics due to their asymmetric structure. Normally, one side (adhesive interface) is predominantly constituted of polysaccharide components, primarily serving excellent adhesion. On the other side (functional surface), they integrate diverse functionalities, concurrently performing a plethora of synergistic functions. In the biomedical field, JSHs are widely applied in anti-adhesion, drug delivery, wound healing, and other areas. It also exhibits functions in seawater desalination and motion sensing. Thus, JSHs hold broad prospects for applications, and they possess significant research value in nanotechnology, environmental science, healthcare, and other fields. Additionally, this article proposes the challenges and future work facing these fields.

Abstract
Biological species can walk, swim, fly, jump, and climb with fast response speeds and motion complexity. These remarkable functions are accomplished by means of soft actuation organisms, which are commonly composed of muscle tissue systems. To achieve the creation of their biomimetic artificial counterparts, various biomimetic stimuli-responsive materials have been synthesized and developed in recent decades. They can respond to various external stimuli in the form of structural or morphological transformations by actively or passively converting input energy into mechanical energy. They are the core element of soft actuators for typical smart devices like soft robots, artificial muscles, intelligent sensors and nanogenerators. Significant progress has been made in the development of bioinspired stimuli-responsive materials. However, these materials have not been comprehensively summarized with specific actuation mechanisms in the literature. In this review, we will discuss recent advances in biomimetic stimuli-responsive materials that are instrumental for soft actuators. Firstly, different stimuli-responsive principles for soft actuators are discussed, including fluidic, electrical, thermal, magnetic, light, and chemical stimuli. We further summarize the state-of-the-art stimuli-responsive materials for soft actuators and explore the advantages and disadvantages of using electroactive polymers, magnetic soft composites, photo-thermal responsive polymers, shape memory alloys and other responsive soft materials. Finally, we provide a critical outlook on the field of stimuli-responsive soft actuators and emphasize the challenges in the process of their implementation to various industries.

Abstract
Strain/pressure sensors with high sensitivity and a wide operation range have broad application prospects in wearable medical equipment, human-computer interactions, electronic skin, and so on. In this work, based on the different solubilities of Zr4+ in the aqueous phase and the hydrophobic ionic liquid [BMIM][Tf2N], we used N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMA) as a vinyl monomer to prepare a Janus-type ionic conductive gel with one-sided adhesion through "one-step" UV irradiation polymerization. The Janus-type gel has satisfactory mechanical properties (tensile strength: 217.06 kPa, elongation at break: 1121.01%), electrical conductivity (conductivity: 0.10 S m-1), one-sided adhesion (adhesion strength to glass: 72.35 kPa) and antibacterial properties. The sensor based on the Janus gel can be used not only for real-time monitoring of strain changes caused by various movements of the human body (such as finger bending, muscle contraction, smiling, and swallowing) but also for real-time monitoring of pressure changes (such as pressing, water droplets, and writing movements). Therefore, based on the simplicity of this method for constructing Janus-type ionic conductive gels and the excellent electromechanical properties of the prepared gel, we believe that the method provided in this study has broad application prospects in the field of multifunctional wearable sensors.

Abstract
Despite the adhesive hydrogels have gained progress and popularity, it is still an enormous challenge to develop a smart adhesion hydrogel for clinical medicine, which is an asymmetric adhesion hydrogel with on-demand detachment. Motivated by the thermal phase transition mechanism of gelatin, we have synthesized a Janus supramolecular hydrogel dressing with skin temperature-triggered adhesion by a simple one-pot process. This hydrogel has asymmetric and controllable adhesion, which not only can become the external objects barrier but also can achieve repeated adhesion and on-demand detachment triggered by temperature in tens of seconds. This hydrogel presents great mechanical performance (compressive strain of 65 %, 1.38 MPa) owing to the presence of supramolecular interactions in the hydrogel. Additionally, this hydrogel exhibits excellent antibacterial activity and biocompatibility. The synergistic effect of modified gelatin and ionic liquid greatly facilitates wound healing of full-thickness skin with high wound healing efficiency (98.45 %). Therefore, thanks to all these advantages, the Janus supramolecular hydrogel can be applied for wound management and treatment, which has huge potential in healing skin wounds.

Gels 2023; 9:gels9040279.

Abstract
As one of the most important anisotropic intelligent materials, bi-layer stimuli-responsive actuating hydrogels have proven their wide potential in soft robots, artificial muscles, biosensors, and drug delivery. However, they can commonly provide a simple one-actuating process under one external stimulus, which severely limits their further application. Herein, we have developed a new anisotropic hydrogel actuator by local ionic crosslinking on the poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) hydrogel layer of the bi-layer hydrogel for sequential two-stage bending under a single stimulus. Under pH = 13, ionic-crosslinked PAA networks undergo shrinking (-COO−/Fe3+ complexation) and swelling (water absorption) processes. As a combination of Fe3+ crosslinked PAA hydrogel (PAA@Fe3+) with non-swelling poly(3-(1-(4-vinylbenzyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium-3-yl)propane-1-sulfonate) (PZ) hydrogel, the as-prepared PZ-PAA@Fe3+ bi-layer hydrogel exhibits distinct fast and large-amplitude bidirectional bending behavior. Such sequential two-stage actuation, including bending orientation, angle, and velocity, can be controlled by pH, temperature, hydrogel thickness, and Fe3+ concentration. Furthermore, hand-patterning Fe3+ to crosslink with PAA enables us to achieve various complex 2D and 3D shape transformations. Our work provides a new bi-layer hydrogel system that performs sequential two-stage bending without switching external stimuli, which will inspire the design of programmable and versatile hydrogel-based actuators.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive multilayer hydrogels have opened new opportunities to design hierarchically organized networks with properties controlled at the nanoscale. These multilayer materials integrate structural, morphological, and compositional versatility provided by alternating layer-by-layer polymer deposition with the capability for dramatic and reversible changes in volumes upon environmental triggers, a characteristic of chemically cross-linked responsive networks. Despite their intriguing potential, there has been limited knowledge about the structure-property relationships of multilayer hydrogels, partly because of the challenges in regulating network structural organization and the limited set of the instrumental pool to resolve structure and properties at nanometer spatial resolution. This Feature Article highlights our recent studies on advancing assembly technologies, fundamentals, and applications of multilayer hydrogels. The fundamental relationships among synthetic strategies, chemical compositions, and hydrogel architectures are discussed, and their impacts on stimuli-induced volume changes, morphology, and mechanical responses are presented. We present an overview of our studies on thin multilayer hydrogel coatings, focusing on controlling and quantifying the degree of layer intermixing, which are crucial issues in the design of hydrogels with predictable properties. We also uncover the behavior of stratified "multicompartment" hydrogels in response to changes in pH and temperature. We summarize the mechanical responses of free-standing multilayer hydrogels, including planar thin coatings and films with closed geometries such as hollow microcapsules and nonhollow hydrogel microparticles with spherical and nonspherical shapes. Finally, we will showcase potential applications of pH- and temperature-sensitive multilayer hydrogels in sensing and drug delivery. The knowledge about multilayer hydrogels can advance the rational design of polymer networks with predictable and well-tunable properties, contributing to modern polymer science and broadening hydrogel applications.
