Semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN) superabsorbent nanocomposite based on montmorillonite (MMT) and sodium alginate (NaAlg)-g-poly(acrylic acid(AA))/polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) was synthesized. Chemical structure and surface morphology of the hydrogels were characterized by FTIR, XRD, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), SEM, and TEM techniques. FTIR results revealed that graft polymerization, PVP interpenetration through hydrogel network, and nanocomposite formation have occurred. The coarse surface of the hydrogels was changed into interlinked porous structures in the presence of MMT. The effect of polymerization variables on water absorbency of the hydrogels was assessed and optimized. Semi-IPN superabsorbent nanocomposite presented higher equilibrium swelling capacity (618.92 g/g) compared with neat hydrogel (521.17 g/g). Swelling behavior of the hydrogels strongly depended on pH values of the solution as well as the type and concentration of saline solution. Semi-IPN superabsorbent nanocomposite possessed good reswelling capability, making it as an efficient water reservoir to supply required water to plants in agricultural applications.
