Crosslinking hydrogel membranes were prepared by esterification reaction with different ratios of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA).The purpose of the study was to research the effect of the crosslinking agent PAA on the hydrogel properties of the membranes used for soilless cultivation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
