Hydrogel production and characterization

Hydrogels are used in many industrial areas. Some of these can be shown in the biomedical, pharmaceutical, technology and agricultural field. The use of hydrogels, which have different services in these areas, has been expanded with the addition of the desired properties. Studies have shown that semi-synthetic hydrogels have higher efficiency than other hydrogels, and monomer selection was made accordingly. It is aimed that the hydrogels produced at the end of this thesis research will serve the agricultural and biomedical fields. The high water holding ability of hydrogels has made it a place to be used for cleaning and hygiene purposes such as diapers and patient beds. Hydrogels are used in the controlled release of water in agriculture. Composite hydrogel structures obtained as a result of radical cross-linking of monomer groups were aimed to have high water content in equilibrium
