tudy on optimum condition of empty fruit bunch-graft-acrylic acid superabsorbent polymer composites

Oil palm empty fruit bunch graft (acrylic acid) superabsorbent composite (OPEFB-g-AA SPC) was synthesized by graft copolymerization of the acrylic acid (AA) comonomer onto OPEFB fibre using ammonium persulfate (APS) and N,N-methylene bisacarylamide (MBA) as an initiator and crosslinker. Systematical...
