The structure and properties of a specific hydrogel are extremely important in selecting which materials are suitable for the specific application. Knowledge of the structure-property relationship is, then, fundamental to tailor hydrogel properties to their final goal.
In this chapter, the theory describing the mechanical, both static and dynamic, and the swelling behavior of hydrogels is examined and the relationship between these properties and structural parameters is discussed.
