PREPARATION OF BIODEGRADABLE FLAX SHIVE CELLULOSE-BASED SUPERABSORBENT POLYMER UNDER MICROWAVE IRRADIATION
Superabsorbent polymer was prepared by graft polymerization of acrylic acid onto the chain of cellulose from flax shive by using potassium persulfate (KPS) as an initiator and N,N’-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinker under microwave irradiation. SEM photographs were also studied for more i...
