Obtaining of complex hydrogel fertilizers with moisture-retaining NPK based on local raw materials

Abstract

Abstract This article presents the results of research on the production of fertilizers using water-saving hydrogel on the basis of local raw materials. The reaction of ParPAN raw materials with inorganic and organic acids and in the presence of formalin has been studied. According to the results of research, a new type of hydrogel was synthesized. The degree of swelling of the hydrogel has been found to be related to the amount of formalin and other additives. The composition of the hydrogel composition with mineral fertilizer was developed, its basic physico-chemical characteristics and swelling kinetics were studied. The use of hydrogels as a means of keeping moisture and feed components in arid and low-water agricultural regions of the Republic of Uzbekistan is recommended.
