Synthesis of Superabsorbents Based on Agar and Modified Agar and Investigation of their Applications in Controlled Release of Potassium Nitrate as a Sample of Ionic Fertilizers, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Pourjavadi, Ali (Supervisor)
Abstract
This thesis focouses on the preparation and super-swelling behavior of two superabsorbent hydrogel. In the first section, a new superabsorbent hydrogel based on agar was prepared and the effect of the ratio of some components(AA, AAM, MBA, APS and agar) on the swelling capasity of the hydrogel was studied. Maximum water absorbency of the optimized final product was found to be 614.5 g/g in distilled water. The structure of the hydrogel was characterized by FT-IR method and morphology of the samples was examined by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Swelling behavior properties of optimized hydrogel sample in different swelling medium were investigated. In the second section, we report the...
