This research was conducted to purpose preparing and characterization various types of hydrogels such as blending, composite and grafting. This was done by reacting monomers such as acrylamide (A.M), methyl acrylate (M.A) and polymers. Polyvinyl Pyrrolidine (PVP) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) with pectin was prepared from citrus peels. Hydrogel polymers (graft, blend and composite) were characterized using different techniques such as Fourier Transformed Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results of the reactions were identical to the theoretical expectations. The study was conducted to find out some properties such as swelling in water and absorption at different temperatures 25 °C and 20 °C, and the results were shown as a (559.9%, 429.2%) and (515.2%, 363.2%) respectively.
