German term or phrase: schaltbares Polymergel
This is the headline for a press release: Neue XXX-Forschungsgruppe untersucht Mikrostruktur von schaltbaren Polymergelen

This is the only time the term appears in the document. Is there such a thing as a "switchable polymer gel"?

Right at the end, the text explains that the gels can "switch" between permeabiity, i.e. which kind of substances they let pass, and I have opted for "switachable".
