High water content usually contradicts the mechanics for hydrogels, and achieving both characteristics is extremely challenging. Herein, a novel confined-chain-aggregation (CCA) strategy is developed to fabricate ultrastrong and tough hydrogels without sacrificing their inherent water capacity. Based on the popular polyacrylamide/alginate (PAAm/Alg) system with a double network (DN), a poor solvent exchange is induced once PAAm is fully cross-linked but prior to ionic cross-linking of alginate. In this case, the alginate chains are restr
