Polyacrylic acid/ octavinyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane, nanocomposite hydrogel with 3-D network was synthesized via radical polymerization. Octavinyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane was used as crosslinker and nanofiller simultaneously in the preparation of the hydrogel. Hydrogel adsorption performance was determined by adsorption of methylene blue. The adsorption capacity was ev...
