The invention further relates to a hydrogel comprising the cross-linkable polymer that comprises cross-linkable polymer strands, wherein at least some of the cross-linkable units of different cross-linkable polymer strands have reacted to form a covalent bond thereby forming a covalently linked network. The invention further relates to a method for the preparation of the hydrogel and to the use of the hydrogel.patentCN112805306US2022031909EP3861028CN112805306WO202007026768104664
