(PAM) chains onto carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) via a free radical polymerization method using gamma-irradiation. The prepared CMC/PAM hydrogels were characterized by FT-IR spectral analysis. The AM content and irradiation dose had a direct effect on gel content of CMC/PAM hydrogels and inverse effect on their swelling ratio. The hydrogels showed enormous swelling in aqueous medium and displayed swelling characteristics which were highly dependent on the chemical composition of the hydrogel, pH and ionic strength of the medium in which the hydrogel was immersed. The results were supported by morphological properties of CMC/PAM hydrogels by using SEM. The kinetics of water uptake and the water transport mechanism were studied as a function of the CMC/AM ratio into the prepared hydrogel. The release rate of potassium nitrate entrapped within the CMC/PAM matrix increased by enhancing its loading %, and decreased with lowering AM content and irradiation dose. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
