A key parameter for the application of polymer gels in water shut off treatment is the adsorption of polymer gel onto the rock surface. So, the adsorption properties of a nanocomposite hydrogel were discussed in this research by crosslinking of sulfonated polyacrylamide/sodium montmorillonite aqueous solutions with chromium triacetate. The X-ray diffraction patterns indicated that exfoliated ty...

Supplementary cementitious materials were incorporated into hydrogel-based internal curing agents to improve the hydration, microstructure, and ultimately strength of internally cured high-performance cement paste. Polyacrylamide composite hydrogel particles containing amorphous silica – either fume or nanosilica two different polymer network crosslink densities synthesized The presence low den...

The present study describes two different methods for the preparation of superabsorbent polyacrylamide (PAAm) hydrogels for application in farming of sandy soil. The two methods were employed to induce the crosslinking of the polymer matrix. In the first method a PAAm paste was exposed to gamma rays, while in the second method the polymer was thermally treated in the solid phase. Crosslinked PA...

Hydration of a commercial hydrophilic polyacrylamide gel in 20 meq Ca(NO 3)2/ liter was reduced to <10% of the maximum hydration in deionized water. Repeated soaking with deionized water to remove soluble salts restored hydration to ≈ 30% of maximum. Incorporating KNO3 at concentrations ranging from 5 to 40 meq·liter -1 with the Ca(NO3)2 in the hydration solution partially reversed the Ca 2+ in...

Signal drift and performance instability of brain-computer interface devices induced by the failure between rigid metal electrodes soft human skin hinder precise data acquisition electroencephalogram (EEG). Thus, it is desirable to achieve a robust for devices. Here, kind polydopamine methacrylamide-polyacrylamide (PDMA-PAAM) hydrogel developed. To improve adhesion, dopamine introduced into pol...

The growth dynamics of polyacrylamide hydrogel beads due to liquid absorption under geometric confinement is studied. First, the behavior individual investigated and, subsequently, analyzed in presence several interacting same material. In both, and collective studies, magnitude varied, order investigate effect that stress applied on particles has their hydration kinetics.
