Özet

The multi-network hydrogel synthesized using a novel combination of acrylamide and sodium vinyl sulfonate as monomers, along with N,N′-methylene bisacrylamide as a crosslinking agent, exhibits promising potential for applications in wastewater treatment and drug delivery systems. In addition to evaluating the chemical and thermal properties, the swelling behavior of the hydrogels was examined. Furthermore, the findings from the study of paracetamol adsorption onto the multi-network hydrogel were examined utilizing a variety of adsorption isotherms and kinetic models. The results demonstrate that the hydrogel with a swelling equilibrium value of 265.78 g H2O/g dry gel has considerable potential for the removal of paracetamol from aqueous solution, with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model offering an outstanding fit to the experimental data. This work contributes to the development of potential and sustainable materials for environmental and biomedical applications.
