The preparation of an itaconic acid-based oligomer and its polymerization with acrylic acid via aqueous solution copolymerization are described herein for application as novel superabsorbent polymers (SAPs). structure the SAP is characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. In addition, absorption properties SAPs various contents degrees monomer neutralization evaluated b...

A solution polymerization method has been used to synthesize a polyacrylic-type superabsorbent polymer (SAP). The influence of various influential factors, such as the temperature, neutralization degree, cross-linking agent, and initiator, on water absorption capacity SAP investigated. results show that can display non-monotonic behavior depending synthesis conditions. also change according pH,...

Internal curing by superabsorbent polymer (SAP) has been applied in alkali-activated slag (AAS) systems a few previous studies with the purpose to mitigate autogenous shrinkage. However, effects of SAP on other properties AAS have rarely studied. In this paper, workability, strength, permeability, and frost resistance mortar synthesized are investigated besides Two introducing ways (dry mixing ...

Superabsorbent polymer (SAP)-containing wound dressings present a valuable and unique category of wound management products. An in vitro approach was used to assess the effects of a new SAP dressing in treatment of non-healing wounds. It was shown that the SAP dressing possesses a significant binding capacity for MMP-2 and MMP-9 in vitro (P\0.001). The inclusion of the bound proteases was so st...
