我们描述了在理解带电水凝胶与其受限移动反离子的微观相互作用方面取得的最新进展。广泛的计算机模拟结果与各种溶剂条件下的简单标度描述进行了比较。我们将简要讨论用于执行模拟的仿真包ESPResSo。我们证明了为什么简单的标度理论足以充分描述这些系统的膨胀行为，尽管它们非常复杂。最后，我们将介绍在不良溶剂条件下聚电解质网络的最新研究成果。
We describe recent advances obtained in understanding the microscopic interplay of a charged hydrogel with its confined mobile counterions. Results of extensive computer simulations are compared to simple scaling descriptions for various solvent conditions. We will briefly discuss our simulation package ESPResSo which was used to perform the simulations. We demonstrate why simple scaling theories suffice to adequately describe the swelling behavior of these systems despite their enormous complexity. We will conclude with a presentation of ongoing results for polyelectrolyte networks under poor solvent conditions.
