Preparation and Swelling Properties of Zeolite-Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-acrylic acid) Hydrogel Composites

Year: 2016
Type: article
Abstract: Zeolite-Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA)-co-acrylic acid (AA)) hydrogel composite materials were synthesized by in situ free radical addition polymerization technique.The swelling values obtained highly for the hydrogel are synthesized at HEMA/AA monomer ratio value of 80/20.The hydrogel composites synthesized with zeolite having -90 µm particle size and 20 wt% amount showed the highest swelling degree.Zeolite adding to the hydrogel structure increased the swelling values of hydrogel.Synthesized samples were characterized using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer technique.
