To realize single-stimulus-induced simultaneous multi-behaviors in hydrogels is still quite challenging nowadays.Herein,an intelli-gent pH-responsive hydrogel(BP4VA/PAS)with rapid and high contrast changes in color,fluorescence,and shape simultaneously is reported.The BP4VA/PAS hydrogel is fabricated by incorporating styryl anthracene derivative(BP4VA)into copolymer networks(PAS)of acrylamide and sodium 4-styrene sulfonate.Under acid conditions,the protonation of BP4VA generates a rapid change with high color contrast from yellow to red and a fluorescence switch between bright green and weak red emission.At the same time,the electrostatic interactions between 2H-BP4VA2+and sulfonate anions suspended on PAS trigger BP4VA/PAS hydrogels to shrink.Upon alkaline treatment,the 2H-BP4VA2+/PAS hydrogel deproto-nates and recovers to its original color,fluorescence,and shape.Furthermore,utilizing rapid and remarkable pH-responsive properties of BP4VA/PAS hydrogels,we successfully demonstrated its applications in biomimicry,camouflage,and multistage information encryption.Collec-tively,this work provided an elegant strategy to develop intelligent hydrogels in applications of biomimetic smart materials and information en-cryption.
