Abstract:
1. A manufacturing method for an organic/inorganic hybrid hydrogel comprising the steps of: preparing a homogeneous solution containing (A′) which corresponds to a monomer of a water soluble polymer (A), a water swelling clay mineral (B) which can be homogeneously dispersed in water, and water (C); and polymerizing the monomer (A′) under the presence of the clay mineral (B) such that after polymerization the organic/inorganic hybrid hydrogel has a tensile load at break of more than 0.1N, a tensile elongation at break of more than 100%, and a load at a tensile elongation of 100% is more than 0.01N in the case of using said organic/inorganic hybrid hydrogel, having a water content defined by {C/(A+B)} is 600 to 1000 weight %, for a sample which has an initial sectional area of 0.237 cm
