Original Abstract

The behavior of hydrogel networks during deformation is presented. The hydrogel networks are hybrid and composed of physical and covalent crosslinks. The parameter is a ratio of covalne and physical crosslinks. The damage means the dissociation of physical crosslinks. The mechanisms of damage recovery can be several: segmental hops, reconstruction of physical clusters and re attachment of interacting groups to the clusters.
