Synthesis and Swelling Behaviors of P(AMPS-co-AAc) Superabsorbent Hydrogel Produced by Glow-Discharge Electrolysis Plasma

Highly swelling P(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid- co-acrylic acid) (P(AMPS-co-AAc)) superabsorbent hydrogel was synthesized in aqueous solution by a simple one-step using glow-discharge electrolysis plasma technique, in which N,N’-methylenebisacrylamide was used as a crosslinking agent. The structure, thermal stability and morphology of P(AMPS-co-AAc) superabsorbent hydrogel were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. A mechanism for synthesis of P(AMPS-co-AAc) superabsorbent hydrogel was proposed. The reaction parameters affecting the equilibrium swelling (i.e., discharge voltage, discharge time, macroscopic temperature of the liquid phase, mass ratio of AMPS to AAc, and content of crosslinker) were systematically optimized to achieve a superabsorbent hydrogel with a maximum swelling capacity. The hydrogel formed which absorbed about 1,685 g H₂O/g dry hydrogel of the optimized product was used to study the influence of various pH values and salts solutions (NaCl, KCl, MgCl₂, and CaCl₂) on the equilibrium swelling. In addition, swelling kinetics in distilled water and on–off switching behavior were preliminarily investigated. The results showed that superabsorbent hydrogel was responsive to the pH and salts.     

Rheological and transport properties of sulfonated polyacrylamide hydrogels for water shutoff in porous media

In this research, an optimal hydrogel, based on sulfonated polyacrylamide, was synthesized by statistical design of experiments using central composite method. This new hydrogel composed of sulfonated polyacrylamide (AN125VLM) and chromium triacetate as copolymer and crosslinker, respectively. The bottle and rheological tests were conducted to investigate the gelation time, thermal stability, gel strength and also ultimate elastic modulus, complex modulus, and yield stress. It was found that copolymer concentration had the main effect in both rheological and transport properties of hydrogels. The sample prepared at optimum condition, i.e. copolymer concentration of 26,340 ppm and crosslinker/copolymer ratio of 0.12, had an ultimate elastic modulus of 29.9 kPa, yield stress of 800 Pa, and complex modulus of 32 kPa. A coreflooding test through fracture was carried out to examine the optimum gel performance in a porous media. A value of 483 for the residual resistance factor ratio of water to oil confirmed the high ability of the hydrogel in reducing the relative permeability of water to oil in fractured media.

Preparation and properties of macroporous superabsorbent composite

A fast swelling macroporous superabsorbent composite was prepared by the copolymerization of partially neutralized acrylic acid, 2‐acryloylamino‐2‐methyl‐1‐propanesulfonic acid (AMPS), and attapulgite (APT) using N, N′‐methylenebisacrylamide (NNMBA) and trihydroxymethyl propane glycidol ether as crosslinking agents. For fast swelling rate (SR), sodium bicarbonate, polyethylene glycol (PEG), and sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) were introduced into the reaction system as foaming agent and stabilizers. Furthermore, the copolymer was surface‐crosslinked with glycerine and sodium silicate, and then blended with aluminum sulfate and sodium carbonate. The influences of the amount of NNMBA, trihydroxymethyl propane glycidol ether, PEG, CMC and sodium bicarbonate, and reaction temperature on water absorbence both under atmospheric pressure and load, and on the SR were investigated. The water absorbence of the sample in 0.9 wt% NaCl aqueous solution under atmospheric pressure and certain load (P ≈ 2 × 10³ Pa) could reach 54 and 8 g.g^?1, respectively, and the SR could reach 0.471 ml g^?1 s^?1. The excellent strength, resilience, and the dispersion of swollen hydrogel were also observed for the sample. Moreover, the surface morphology of macroporous superabsorbent composite was characterized using scanning electron microscope. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Preparation and properties of superabsorbent containing starch and sodium humate

Starch and sodium humate were utilized as raw material for synthesizing starch‐g‐poly(acrylic acid)/sodium humate (St‐g‐PAA/SH) superabsorbent by graft copolymerization reaction of starch (St) and acrylic acid (AA) in the presence of sodium humate (SH) in aqueous solution. The effect of weight ratio of AA to St, initial monomer concentration, neutralization degree of AA, amount of crosslinker, initiator and SH on water absorbency of the superabsorbent were studied. The swelling rate and swelling behavior in NaCl solution as well as reswelling ability of the superabsorbent were systematically investigated. The results showed that the superabsorbent synthesized under optimal conditions with SH content of 7.7 wt% and St content of 11.5 wt% exhibits water absorbency of 1100 g/g in distilled water and 86 g/g in 0.9 wt% NaCl solution, respectively. Introducing SH into the St‐g‐PAA polymeric network can improved the swelling rate and reswelling capability of the superabsorbent. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Porous nanocomposite hydrogel of vinyled montmorillonite-crosslinked maltodextrin-co-dimethylacrylamide as a highly stable polymer carrier for controlled release systems

Nanocomposite hydrogel consisting of dispersed montmorillonite-crosslinked maltodextrin-co-dimethylacrylamide (malt-dex-co-DMAAm) as a highly stable device was developed. Carbon-carbon π-bonds issued from glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) were incorporated onto both the MMT (MMT-π) and the malt-dex (malt-dex-π) structures. The nanocomposite copolymer hydrogel was processed via radical crosslinking reaction of malt-dex-π with MMT-π in the presence of DMAAm. The radical reaction of the carbon-carbon π-bonds at the MMT-π was verified by treating the MMT-π with sodium persulfate. There was an excellent dispersion of the MMT-π at the interior of the matrix even after the nanocomposite hydrogel being swollen, demonstrating that the developed methodology can imprint stability of mineral nanoparticles into a porous polymer network preventing diffusion of water-bonded silicate platelets toward the outside matrix. The water absorption profile became more dependent on the polymer relaxation for mineral-loader nanocomposite hydrogels. Higher water absorption had an impact on reduction of elasticity modulus due to softer polymer network in swollen state.     

Synthesis,characterization and water absorbency properties of poly(acrylic acid)/sodium humate superabsorbent composite

A novel poly(acrylic acid)/sodium humate superabsorbent composite was synthesized by aqueous solution polymerization of acrylic acid using N, N′‐methylenebisacrylamide as a crosslinker and ammonium persulfate as an initiator in the presence of sodium humate. The effects on water absorbency such as initial monomer concentration, degree of neutralization of acrylic acid, amount of crosslinker, initiator and sodium humate, etc. were investigated. The water absorbency of the superabsorbent composite synthesized under optimal synthesis conditions with a sodium humate content of 20% exhibited an absorption of 1268 g H₂O/g sample and 93 g H₂O/g sample in distilled water and in 0.9 wt% NaCl solution, respectively. Swelling rate and water retention tests were also carried out. The results show that sodium humate, as a kind of functional filler, can enhance comprehensive properties of superabsorbent composite and reduce the product cost significantly.

Modified chitosan III,superabsorbency, salt‐ and pH‐sensitivity of smart ampholytic hydrogels from chitosan‐g‐PAN

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) grafted chitosan was prepared by ceric‐initiated graft polymerization of acrylonitrile onto chitosan in a homogenous medium. The copolymer chitosan‐g‐PAN product was then hydrolyzed to yield a novel smart hydrogel (H‐chitoPAN) with superabsorbing properties. The influence of add‐on values as well as temperature and time of hydrolysis of the initial chitosan‐g‐PAN on swelling behavior of the hydrogel was evaluated in water and various salt solutions. The swelling kinetics of the superabsorbing hydrogel was studied as well. The hydrogels exhibited ampholytic and pH‐sensitivity characteristics. Several sharp swelling changes were observed in lieu of pH variations in a wide range (pH 2–13). The swelling variations were explained according to swelling theory based on the hydrogel chemical structure. Superabsorbency, pH‐ and salt‐sensitivity of the chitosan‐based hydrogel was briefly compared with the classical starch‐based superabsorbent, H‐SPAN. The pH‐reversibility and on–off switching behavior of the intelligent H‐chitoPAN hydrogels makes them good candidates for considering as potential drug carries.

Effect of surfactant on porosity and swelling behaviors of guar gum-g-poly(sodium acrylate-co-styrene)/attapulgite superabsorbent hydrogels

Novel fast-swelling porous guar gum-g-poly(sodium acrylate-co-styrene)/attapulgite (GG-g-P(NaA-co-St)/APT) superabsorbent hydrogels were prepared by simultaneous free-radical graft copolymerization reaction of guar gum (GG), partially neutralized AA (NaA), styrene (St) and attapulgite (APT) using N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinker and ammonium persulfate (APS) as an initiator in aqueous solution and the surfactant self-assembling templating pore-forming technique. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy confirmed that the surfactant could be removed from the final hydrogel product by methanol/water (8:1, v/v) washing process and the surfactant only act as micelle template to form pores. The effect of surfactant type on the porous microstructure of the hydrogel was assessed by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). It was shown that incorporation of proper amount of anionic surfactant sodium n-dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in the gelling process of the hydrogel can obviously enhance the swelling capacity and initial swelling rate. The salt-sensitivity of the SDS-added hydrogel in distilled water and 15 mmol/L NaCl, CaCl(2) solution or 15 mmol/L NaCl and CaCl(2) solution was investigated, and it was found that the swelling-deswelling capability is quite reversible. A similar reproducible on-off switching behavior was observed in the 1 mmol/L solution of phosphate buffer at pH 2.1 and 7.4.
