Synthesis and investigation of superabsorbent polymer networks based on AMPS and VPA monomers

Synthesis and swelling properties of HPMC-based superabsorbent hydrogels for water-retention applications

In this study, highly swellable hydrogels were synthesized based on hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) in the presence of acrylamide (AM), polyacrylamide (PAM), vinyl acetate (VA), urea, bentonite, and sodium bicarbonate. The key factors influencing their structural and functional properties were systematically ana...

Synthesis, Physicochemical, and Rheological Evaluation of Cellulose-Based Stimuli-Sensitive Polymer Microgels

Structure and flory-rehner analysis of organo-inorganic superabsorbent nanocomposites based on acrylic monomers and montmorillonite clay

The Synthesis of Superabsorbent Hydrogels Containing Naturally Derived Components and Their Use for the Environmental Cleanup of Dye Pollutants

The utilization of naturally derived sustainable components is an increasing trend in polymer and materials science and technology. This paper reports on the synthesis of superabsorbent hydrogels (SAHs) containing acrylic acid (AA), styrene (St, 10 wt.% of AA) and poly(ethylene glycol diacrylate) (PEGDA) using one-pot...

Physicochemical Characterization and Network Modeling of Cross-Linked Inulin Based Hydrogels

Inulin (In)-based hydrogels were produced using 1,3-diepoxybutane (BDE) as a crosslinker under basic conditions. The amount of BDE influences the network properties of In/BDE gels. FTIR spectroscopy revealed the formation of ether bridges, indicating successful synthesis of gels, and thermal characterization confirmed...

Comparative Study of Supramolecular Networks and Polymer Blends Based on Polylactide and Polysiloxanes

Supramolecular networks of polylactide (PLA) and aminopropyl‐terminated polysiloxane (APDMS) with PLA:APDMS mass ratios of 10:1, 30:1, and 50:1 have been synthesized by a catalyst‐free approach. FTIR and 1 H NMR confirm cross‐linking via noncovalent interactions. SEM shows relatively homogeneous film morphology a...
