By interspersing thermoreactive segments among smaller areas of absorption, this material releases water at a relatively low temperature, achievable with solar energy alone. The hydrogel can release more than 80 percent of absorbed water in about 20 minutes at a temperature of 40 °C—hot, but not uncommon in desert environments.
