Abstract

The area of interest is the synthesis and study of properties of new types of hydrogels made from pelt waste, in order to recover waste from tanneries. The research paper shows that exploratory research as a starting point to obtain new polymeric complex products -multicomponent - called hydrogels, by processing organic waste with applications in agriculture. Hydrogels that are based on biopolymers, compared with hydrogels based on synthetic polymers, have the advantage of biodegradability and a low level of toxicity. The paper presents the production of biodegradable polymer mixtures obtained from hydrolysis and enrichment of the resulting hydrolysate with phosphorus and potassium. Hydrogels with collagenous structure are tested using a high-performance instrumental analysis system (FT-IR-ATR, SEM, EDAX, etc). The paper presents an experimental model for obtaining hydrogels with collagenous structure from pelt waste resulting from the liming process.
