Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis, characterization, and swelling behavior evaluation of hydrogels based on Gum ghatti and acrylamide for selective absorption of saline from different petroleum fraction–saline emulsions
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of Gum ghatti and acrylamide based superabsorbents under pressure with N,N′-methylene bisacrylamides as a crosslinker and an ascorbic acid-potassium persulfate redox pair as an initiator is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metal ion sorption and swelling studies of psyllium and acrylic acid based hydrogels
TL;DR: In this paper, the swelling response of the polymeric networks as a function of time, temperature, pH and [NaCl has been observed, which indicates that these materials are potential candidates for use in colon specific drug delivery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gamma-radiation initiated synthesis of Psyllium and acrylic acid-based polymeric networks for selective absorption of water from different oil–water emulsions
TL;DR: In this article, a superabsorbent has been synthesized from Psyllium and acrylic acid based polymers under the influence of gamma radiations using hexamine as a crosslinker.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of Crosslinked Networks of Gum ghatti with Different Vinyl Monomer Mixtures and Effect of Ionic Strength of Various Cations on its Swelling Behavior
TL;DR: In this article, a series of pH, temperature, and electrical stimulus sensitive novel hydrogels of Gum ghatti (Gg) with vinyl monomer mixtures of acrylamide (AAm) with acrylic acid (AA), acrylonitrile (AN), and methacrylic acid (MAA) using potassium persulphate-ascorbic acid redox pair as an initiator and N,N’-methylene-bis-acrylamides (MBA) as a crosslinker was synthesized using a free radical polymer
Temperature, pH and electric stimulus responsive hydrogels fromGum ghatti and polyacrylamide-synthesis, characterization andswelling studies
TL;DR: In this article, a hydrogel composed of acrylamide (AAm) and Gum ghatti was prepared under pressure by free radical initiation reaction using potassium persulphate (KPS)-ascorbic acid (ABC) redox pair as an initiator and N,N’-methylene-bis-acrylamides (MBA) as a crosslinker.
