Abstract
This study presents an assessment of inorganic and organic modification of biochar on physicochemical properties, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) release, sorption efficiency towards enrofloxacin (E) and silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs), as well as an evaluation of addition of prepared materials on hydro-physical properties and adsorption capacity of montmorillonite (M). The biochar was derived from wheat straw at 650 °C. An inorganic modification was performed using ammonia hydroxide, whereas an organic modification, using citric acid. The ammonia hydroxide and citric acid changed the biochar nature and surface chemistry by introducing amino and ester groups. The lowest DOC release was from ammonia-biochar (BCN) and the highest, from citric acid-biochar (BCC). The adsorption data were better described by pseudo-II order equation and Marczewski-Jaroniec isotherm. Results showed that BCN exhibited the highest efficiency in adsorption of E and Ag-NPs. It also improved the adsorptive abilities and saturated hydraulic conductivity of M. This provides the chemically modified biochars have an excellent potential to improve pollution removal from aqueous media and hydro-physical/sorption properties of soil sorption complex. They can be used with advantageous in environmental applications.

Abstract
Two series of hydrogels based on acrylamide and its copolymers with acrylonitrile and acrylic acid were synthesized by two cross-linking methods - chemical (using N,N'-methylene bis-acrylamide) and physical (using montmorillonite (MMT)) ones. The structure of the gels was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The swelling and sorption properties were analyzed as a function of both the monomer composition and the cross-linking method. The shift of the band corresponding to Si-O (995-1030 cm-1 ) confirmed the formation of intercalation structures for MMT-cross-linked gels. Moreover, physically cross-linked gels demonstrated a non-monotonic dependence of the swelling degree on the MMT concentration, and acrylamide-acrylic acid copolymer MMT-cross-linked gels showed pH sensitivity and the highest swelling degree of 150 g/g. The highest sorption capacity towards cadmium(II) ions was demonstrated by acrylamide-acrylic acid copolymer gels, both covalently cross-linked (30 mg/g) and MMT-cross-linked (8.9 mg/g).

Abstract
A series of carbon composites were synthesised by carbonisation of resorcinol-formaldehyde resin mixtures with the addition of different amounts of sodium alginate (SA) and compared with a composite prepared using Na2 CO3 as a catalyst for the polymerisation reaction. The effect of operating parameters such as SA concentration and polycondensation time on the structural and morphological properties of resorcinol-formaldehyde resins (RFR) and carbon-derived composites was investigated for further use as adsorbents. The synthesised composites were characterised by FTIR, SEM, Raman spectroscopy and N2 adsorption/desorption techniques. It was found that the morphology, specific surface area (SBET ~347-559 m2 /g), volume and particle size distribution (~0.5-4 μm) and porosity (Vpor =0.178-0.348 cm3 /g) of the composites were influenced by the concentration of SA and the synthesis technique and determined the adsorption properties of the materials. It was found that the surface of the filled chars was found to have an affinity for heavy metals and has the ability to form chemical bonds with cadmium ions. The maximum sorption capacities for Cd(II), i. e. 13.28 mg/g, were observed for the sample synthesised with the highest SA content. This confirms the statement that as-synthesised materials are promising adsorbents for environmental applications.

Abstract
In this work, a new material for in vitro plant rooting based on highly dispersed polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAAG) enriched with amber powder was synthesized and investigated. PAAG was synthesized by homophase radical polymerization with ground amber addition. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and rheological studies were used to characterize the materials. They showed that the synthesized hydrogels have physicochemical and rheological parameters similar to those of the standard agar media. The acute toxicity of PAAG-amber was estimated based on the influence of washing water on the viability of plant seeds (pea and chickpea) and Daphnia magna. It proved its biosafety after four washes. The impact on plant rooting was studied using the propagation of Cannabis sativa on synthesized PAAG-amber and compared with agar. The developed substrate stimulated the rooting of the plants to more than 98% in comparison to standard agar medium (95%). Additionally, the use of PAAG-amber hydrogel markedly enhanced metric indicators of seedlings: root length increased by 28%, stem length-by 26.7%, root weight-by 167%, stem weight-by 67%, root and stem length-by 27%, root and stem weight-by 50%. This means that the developed hydrogel significantly accelerates reproduction and allows obtaining a larger amount of plant material within a shorter period of time than the standard agar substrate.

Abstract
The effects of acid activation of Laponite RD (Lap) on the structure and properties of activated Lap nanoparticles (aLap) and the properties of polyNIPAAm hydrogels physically cross-linked by aLap have been studied. The acid activation of Lap by the sulfuric acid was done using the concentration of sulfuric acid within the interval Ca = 0.525-14.58% for 10 h. For slightly activated samples (Ca ≤ 1.25 wt %), the significant increase of the specific surface area (by ≈1.56 times) was accompanied with a significant decrease in both the values of the specific heat of immersion in water and n-decane. However, the hydrophilic properties of all samples S0-S5 were still observed. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA) data, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns demonstrated that the acid activation resulted in the destruction of the crystal lattice of Lap, leaching of magnesium and lithium, and formation of the amorphous phases. Moreover, the acid activation significantly affected aggregation and negative surface charges of the aLap faces in aqueous suspension. The effects of aLap on the swelling properties and cooperativity in the phase transitions of polyNIPAAm hydrogels cross-linked by aLap are also discussed. It was demonstrated that an increase in Ca resulted in a significant increase in the equilibrium degree of swelling of the hydrogels and a decrease in the hydrogel phase-transition temperature from the swollen phase to the shrunken phase.

Abstract
The development of novel hemostatic agents is related to the fact that severe blood loss due to hemorrhage continues to be the leading cause of preventable death of patients with military trauma and the second leading cause of death of civilian patients with injuries. Herein we assessed the hemostatic properties of porous sponges based on biocompatible hydrophilic polymer, poly(vinyl formal) (PVF), which meets the main requirements for the development of hemostatic materials. A series of composite hemostatic materials based on PVF sponges with different porosities and fillers were synthesized by acetalization of poly(vinyl alcohol) with formaldehyde. Nano-sized aminopropyl silica, micro-sized calcium carbonate, and chitosan hydrogel were used to modify PVF matrixes. The physicochemical properties (pore size, elemental composition, functional groups, hydrophilicity, and acetalization degree) of the synthesized composite sponges were studied by gravimetrical analysis, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy combined with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance. Hemostatic properties of the materials were assessed using a model of parenchymal bleeding from the liver of white male Wistar rat with a gauze bandage as a control. All investigated PVF-based porous sponges showed high hemostatic activity: upon the application of PVF-samples the bleeding decreased within 3 min by 68.4-94.4% (р < 0.001). The bleeding time upon the application of PVF-based composites decreased by 78.3-90.4% (p < 0.001) compared to the application of well-known commercial product Celox™.
