Effect of super-absorbent polymer on swelling pressure of compacted bentonite infiltrated by alkaline solutions

Zhang-Rong Liu et al.

Summary: The application of bentonite in geological disposal of radioactive waste is being evaluated, and in this study, the combination of bentonite with super-absorbent polymer (SAP) was found to improve its chemical resistance to alkaline solutions. The swelling ability and chemical resistance of the bentonite-SAP composites were attributed to the extensive swelling of SAP to clog pores and coat aggregates or montmorillonite stacks.

Progress in the Preparation of Stimulus-Responsive Cellulose Hydrogels and Their Application in Slow-Release Fertilizers

Zhenghui Li et al.

Summary: The development of slow-release fertilizer (SRF) is important for addressing challenges in agriculture such as water scarcity, low fertilizer utilization, food security, and environmental sustainability. This study analyzes various methods for preparing stimulus-responsive cellulose hydrogels and their combinations with different fertilizers. The application and release mechanism of stimulus-responsive cellulose hydrogels in SRF are summarized, and potential issues and solutions are discussed, along with future research directions.

Omniphobic polyurethane - superabsorbent polymer - fluoropolymer surface coating on cotton fabric for chemical protection and thermal comfort

M. A. Rahman Bhuiyan et al.

Summary: This research aims to develop chemical protective clothing with both barrier performance and thermal comfort through a functionalised surface coating on cotton fabric. The coating, consisting of polyurethane, superabsorbent polymer, and fluoropolymer, creates an omniphobic protective layer on the fabric, providing protection against water, oils, and liquid chemicals. The treatment with fluoropolymer significantly improves hydrophobicity, resulting in high water contact angle, water repellency, and liquid repellency. The integration of superabsorbent polymer in the coated fabric enhances dry heat resistance, moisture vapour transmittance, and evaporative cooling index, thus improving thermal comfort. However, the continuous hydrophobic barrier layer on the fabric surface compromises air permeability and moisture management performance.
