Schematic representation of QCSG/CNT cryogel synthesis. a Synthesis of QCSG copolymer. GTMAC and GMA with a fixed 0.5:1 molar ratio of GMA to amino groups and varying the GTMAC: amino groups from 1:1 (coded as QCSG1) to 2:1 (coded as QCSG2) and 3:1 (coded as QCSG3). b Synthesis of PF127-DA copolymer. c Preparation of QCSG/CNT cryogel. d Photographs of the compression and bending resistance capability of QCSG/CNT4 cryogels: initial state, compressed state by squeezing out of the free water, recovery state by absorbing water, bending and squeezing out of part free water, and recovery state after absorbing water. e Shape-fixed state after removing the free water (left) and expanding state after absorbing water (right). Scale bar: 1 cm
