Development of Eco-Friendly Hydrogels Loaded with Stoichiometric and Calcium-Deficient Hydroxyapatites for Sustainable Agriculture
ions, they promoted immobilization of heavy metals, limiting transfer of toxic species to crops. The applied hydroxyapatite improved soil fertility through the supply of mineral components. All these effects indicated that alginate-hydroxyapatite hydrogels can serve as multifunctional materials supporting more sustainable soil management in agriculture.
