A new type of rigid and tough hydrogel with excellent elasticity is designed by dense clustering of hydrogen bonds within a loose chemical network. The resultant hydrogel exhibits a good combination of high modulus (28 MPa), toughness (9300 J m(-3)), extensibility (800%), and tensile stress (2 MPa). Furthermore, the gel displays good fatigue-resistance and complete and extremely fast recovery of shape and mechanical properties (3 min at 37 degrees C).
