AB  - Hydrogel material is considered to be one of the effective adsorbents widely used 
      to remove organic pollutants. However, the poor mechanical properties of some 
      hydrogels limit their applications. Herein, we prepared composite hydrogels, for 
      which acrylic acid (AA) and acrylamide (AM) were cross-linked and polymerised as 
      the main substrate with adsorption function, while CdS nanoparticles were mainly 
      used as reinforced material. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier 
      transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), two-dimensional infrared vibrational echo 
      spectroscopy (2D-IR), and thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA) were used to 
      determine the physical and chemical structures of the hydrogels. The effects of 
      the composition of AA, AM, and CdS on the mechanical properties and adsorption 
      behaviours of the hydrogels were investigated. Besides, based on the great 
      potential photocatalytic application value for wastewater remediation under the 
      sunlight of CdS, the influence of the CdS doping amount on the photocatalytic 
      property was also studied. As a result, when the mass ratio of AA to AM was 5:5, 
      the hydrogel showed the best mechanical properties, and along with increasing the 
      amount of CdS, the mechanical strength of the hydrogel was significantly enhanced 
      from 0.445 MPa to 1.014 MPa. Besides, the composite hydrogels showed high 
      adsorption and photocatalytic degradation synergistic clearance effect on 
      methylene blue. Thus, the introduction of CdS photocatalytic nanoparticles may be 
      an efficient and economical approach towards bifunctional hydrogel materials with 
      enhanced mechanical property and photocatalytic degradation for wastewater 
      remediation.
