Development and Characterization of Chitosan-modified PVA/Borate Hydrogels for Controlled-release of Potassium Chloride
Controlled-release fertilizers (CRFs) are increasingly developed to enhance nutrient use efficiency (NUE) and reduce leaching losses in sustainable agriculture. The objective of this study was to developed poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/borate/chitosan hydrogels as a controlled release carrier for potassium chloride (KCl)...
