Anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) has been sold since 1995 to reduce irrigation‐induced
erosion and enhance infiltration. Its soil stabilizing and flocculating properties improve runoff …

Polysaccharides are a natural and renewable feed stock for synthesizing high performance
macromolecular materials. A popular, versatile and convenient route to develop …

The synthesis of carboxymethyl cellulose-g-polyacrylamide was carried out by a ceric ion
induced solution polymerization technique. By varying the amount of catalyst and monomer …

Natural seed gum derived from Cassia obtusifolia was experimentally evaluated for its
efficiency compared to aluminum sulfate (alum) to treat high-strength wastewater in this …

A series of cationic starches (Cat St) have been developed by incorporating a cationic
moiety N-(3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyl) trimethyl ammonium chloride (CHPTAC) onto the …

Due to their small size and low concentration in the culture medium, cost-efficient harvesting
of microalgae is a major challenge. We evaluated the potential of cationic starch as a …

Xanthan gum (XG) possesses numerous hydroxyl groups, which are the focal points for graft
copolymerization of synthetic monomers. A detailed mechanism of graft copolymerization is …

In the recent era, polysaccharide-based hydrogels received the greater attention due to their
exceptional properties like biodegradability, and biocompatibility. In polysaccharide-based …

A novel polymeric flocculant based on polyacrylamide grafted carboxymethyl guar gum
(CMG-g-PAM) has been synthesised by grafting polyacrylamide chains onto CMG backbone …

The fact that water is the most important material used by mankind defines the importance of
water purification. Wastewater and industrial effluent treatment require removal of …
