In this study, we introduce a salt-responsive hydrogel system utilizing a sugar-derived surfactant featuring a polyhydroxy spacer in its headgroup. The inclusion of salts enhances and organizes the intermolecular hydrogen bonding within the hydrophilic region of the polyhydroxy spacer, promoting cross-linking among surfactant molecules.
