HYDROGEL SYNTHESIS FOR DYE AND

HEAVY METAL REMEDIATION

ydrogels are the three dimensionally cross-linked (chemically or

physically) polymeric networks which can retain huge amount of wa-

ter without getting dissolved in it. The cross-linked structure of hydrogels

can be used for the remediation of organic and inorganic contaminants

from the industrial waste streams apart from applications in many other

areas. This paper presents the synthesis of Poly (Acrylamide-co-Acrylic

acid) hydrogel using solution polymerisation technique and the effect of

variation in concentration of cross-linker initiator, strengthening agent,

monomer ratio on the consistency and behavior of hydrogel in terms of

its hygroscopicity and dye remediation was examined which show en-

couraging results and hold lot much of promise and potential for treat-

ment of waste in industry.
