Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the value of Cellulose Nanofiber (CNF) as replacement material of Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP). When the mixing ratio of SAP and CNF was 2%, the green coverage rate, chlorophyll fluorescence was the best, and Leaf water contents were the highest, and electrolyte leakage was the lowest, showing relatively high growth response. Spathiphyllum had the longest life and maintained a good growth condition with CNF 2% mixing ratio comparing with others under water stress. In addition, the water stress caused by the moisture content is relatively low, so the chlorophyll fluorescence and Leaf water contents were high, and electrolyte leakage is low. As a result, the use of CNF as a high-absorbent polymer substitute is well worth in urban environments, which can be used as a functional material to save maintenance costs and respond to climate change such as drought.
