Biocomposite of Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) from rice straw — Polyacrylamida (PAM) and corncob-Polyacrylamida (PAM): Synthesis and characterization

摘要

The biocomposite of Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) has synthesized based on cellulose and polyacrilamida (PAM). To increase the value of waste, the cellulose is extracted from of corncob and rice straw. Then the cellulose was mixed with PAM to get irradiation from electron beam machine. To know the biocomposite SAP was characterized. The classification consisted of cellulose level, swelling factor, grafting factor, depreciation level and functional group. The comparison SAP based on cellulose showed that the cellulose level equals with other characterization of SAP level. Meanwhile the functional group found O-H from PAM and C-N from cellulose.
