abstract = {The present review article highlights a specific class of
responsive polymer-based hydrogels which are formed through
association of oppositely charged polyion segments. The
underpinning temporary three-dimensional network is
constituted of hydrophilic chains (either ionic or neutral)
physically crosslinked by ion pair formation arising from
intermolecular polyionic complexation of oppositely charged
repeating units (polyacid/polybase ionic interactions). Two
types of hydrogels are presented: (i) hydrogels formed by
triblock copolymers bearing oppositely charged blocks (block
copolyampholytes), forming self-assembled networks; and (ii)
hydrogels formed by co-assembly of oppositely charged
polyelectrolyte segments belonging to different
macromolecules (either block copolymers or
homopolyelectrolytes). Due to the weak nature of the
involved polyions, these hydrogels respond to pH and are
sensitive to the presence of salts. Discussing and
evaluating their solution, rheological and structural
properties in dependence on pH and ionic strength, it comes
out that the hydrogel properties are tunable towards
potential applications},
