Fast and environmental-friendly approach towards uniform hydrogel particles with ultrahigh and selective removal of anionic dyes
TL;DR: In this article, methacrylatoethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (DMC) and acrylamide (AM) copolymer hydrogel particles were prepared by precipitated droplets in-situ cross-linking polymerization, to overcome the easily fragile property of pure PDMC HPs and the low adsorption capacity of pure PAM HPs.
