Hydrogels and Their Utilization in Agricultural Applications
Original language description
At this time, lots of eco-friendly products are developed in the world to replace substances dangerous for environment. In the area of superabsorbent materials the efforts are conducted to substitute synthetic polymers by natural materials or a combination of these two groups of substances. Such products are employed, for example, in agriculture, horticulture and forestry to improve soil water retention and nutrient utilization by plants. Present work is focused on the study of properties of polyacrylate hydrogel encapsulated in a mixture of gelatin and nanostructured clay. It should be suitable for decreasing of acrylic components content in the composite hydrogel and to reduce content of non-biodegradable residues in soil after using hydrogel as soilconditioner in agricultural applications. Swelling capacity and the process of water retention and nutrients release were studied.
