Synthesis, optimization, characterization and agricultural field evaluation of polymer hydrogel composites based on poly acrylic acid and micro-fiber of oil palm empty fruit bunch

The optimum content of initiator (APS), cross linker (MBA), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and oil palm empty fruit bunch micro-fiber (OPEFB), were optimized using central composite design method (CCD). Polymer hydrogel composite (PHGC) and plain polymer hydrogel (PHG) were characterized using thermogravim...
