Abstract: Hydrogels are gels that form a network structure in water-based solvents.Under environmental stimuli, hydrogels can exhibit responsive behaviors.Due to their unique properties, hydrogels have significant potential in drug delivery and chemical separation.By combining different methods for the integration of smart polymers and metal nanoparticles, it is possible to reduce metal ions, thereby enhancing the potential of the material.This review analyzes the silver nanoparticle-loaded multi-responsive composite hydrogels, discussing the properties and classifications of these composite hydrogels.The findings suggest that such materials show promise for applications in catalysis and biomedicine.
