Hydrogel Synthesis from Durian Rind Cellulose with Microwave Grafting Method: A Study of the Effect of Cellulose Preparation Method and Microwave Irradiation Time

Abstract:

This research explored the synthesis of hydrogels from acrylamide-grafted durian rind cellulose using a microwave-assisted method. The objective of this research was to investigate the effect of cellulose preparation and duration of microwave irradiation on the swelling properties of the obtained bead hydrogel. The mixture of cellulose, acrylamide solution, and potassium peroxydisulfate as the initiator agent was irradiated by microwave at 640 W. FTIR analysis showed that acrylamide was grafted into durian rind cellulose successfully. This study found that bead gels from durian rind cellulose, which underwent delignification and bleaching methods, exhibited a greater swelling capacity (855%) after 180 minutes than bead gels from durian rind cellulose without these methods (807%). The optimum microwave irradiation time was found to be 540 s, resulting in a maximum swelling capacity of 676%.
