Abstract

Abstract : Phase‐Separated Polyzwitterionic Hydrogels In article number 2214045, Lianbin Zhang and co‐workers construct a polyzwitterionic hydrogel evaporator with tunable sponge‐like structures by a phase separation strategy for stable solar steam generation. Owing to the anti‐polyelectrolyte effects and the highly interconnected pore structure, the evaporator enables adequate seawater uptake and transport to ensure a fast and stable water evaporation process.
