Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are crosslinked three dimensional structures that poses high swelling capacity in aqueous medium. Its application in agriculture beneficial as it is able to retain moisture in soil. SAPs incorporated with bio-char have been prepared via solution polymerization of polya...
