Summary:Zwitterionic HydrogelsIn article number 2303272, Si Yu Zheng, Jimin Fu, Jintao Yang, and co‐workers design a polyzwitterionic hydrogel evaporator with an ultra‐strong anti‐polyelectrolyte effect, which exhibits high water uptake and low evaporation enthalpy in saline environments. Gradient‐distributed polypyrrole is penetrated to realize solar‐to‐thermal transition and heat confinement. These advantages contribute to the boosted seawater evaporation and co‐generation of freshwater and electricity.
