Carbonated hydroxyapatite (CCaHAp) closely mimics the chemical composition of apatite found in human bone, compared to (HA). The present study aimed prepare CCaHAp nanocomposite using a copolymer sodium hyaluronate-polyacrylamide (poly(Hya-AAm)) hydrogel as HA template. Here, gamma irradiation technique was utilized for preparing poly(Hya-AAm) hydrogel. had dual function template and carbon pre...

to reduce peat while increasing the water holding capacity (whc) of casing soil in button mushroom production an experiment was conducted in 2006 with three hydrogel treatments of: t0= casing soil with no hydrogel, as control, t1= casing soil + 10% hydrogel (v/v), and t2= casing soil + 20% hydrogel (v/v) with three replicates in a completely randomized design. results indicated that treatment 1...

A novel 3D printable hybrid hydrogel is developed and characterized in detail this study. After chemical curing of the 3D-printed constructs, resulting shows excellent mechanical strength with a tensile strain at break exceeding 550%.
