introduction reduced availability of water resources in many arid countries including iran, particularly in response to the indiscriminate harvesting of water reservoirs and climate change, has created concerns. therefore, the sustainable use of water resources especially in agriculture is a necessity for these countries. strategies such as deficit irrigation and superabsorbent application are ...

A simple two-steps polymerization method was used to prepare a polyacrylamide hydrogel with a full interpenetrating network structure based on the sorption and porous properties of polyacrylamide superabsorbent. In conditions of 10 g acrylamide monomer, 0.04 g crosslinker for the first polymerization and the second polymerization, respectively, and the swelling ratio of 9, the hydrogel possesse...

one of the soil and water management practices in order to delay drought stress under water deficit condition; is superabsorbent application. in order to study the effect of  superabsorbent application on yield and yield components, two antioxidant enzymes activity and water relation of two canola hybrids under terminal drought stress condition, a research was carried out in ahvaz climate condi...

In the present paper, attention is paid to synthesis and investigation swelling behavior of a superabsorbent hydrogel composite based on Pectin (Pec) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) in the presence Kaolin powder. The physical mixture of Pec, Kaolin and PAN were hydrolyzed by NaOH solution to yield H-Pec-poly (sodium acrylate-co-acrylamide)/Kaolin superabsorbent hydrogel composite. A proposed mechan...

to study the effect of aquazorb super absorbent polymer (sap) on reducing drought stress of acacia victoriae seedling, a split plot experiment based on the completely randomized design was conducted. in this research, stressed treatment as the main plots and amount of superabsorbent were considered as sub plot. treatments were applied consisted of four levels of drought stress (15, 30, 60 and 1...

Water scarcity is an important obstacle to the development and expansion of urban landscape in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world. Nowadays organic and artificial materials can be used to reducing water consumption without reducing the quality and quantity of urban landscape. In order to study of the effect of some mulch type on the reduce of irrigation interval on a popular seasonal p...

The effect of bio-fertilizers and super-absorbents on the modification water-deficit stress was studied in castor. A field experiment conducted with a split-plot design based completely randomized block three replications. first factor included four levels (70, 100, 130, 160 mm evaporation pan Class) main plot; sub-factor application bio-fertilizer treatments (Azospirillum, Citrobacter, Azospir...

in order to study the effects of a superabsorbent polymer on yield and yield components of dry land wheat cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in factorial arrangement using randomized complete block design with four replications on research field in khomein city, during 2010-2011 cropping season. the experimental factors included three dry land cultivars called azar2, sardari, rasad a...
