Abstract

The quality and preparation methods of cotton seeds play a crucial role in increasing crop yield. Seed swelling capacity, germination energy, and laboratory germination are essential characteristics for precision sowing. The excessive fibrous covering on cotton seeds necessitates linting and delinting processes to ensure uniform distribution during sowing. However, existing methods have drawbacks, and none can be considered perfect. The results of a study on the structures, compositions, and physicochemical properties of polyacrylamide and other ingredients are presented. The potential utilization of these substances in the development of composite chemical preparations for cotton seed treatment is demonstrated. Based on the research findings, it is evident that the concentration of PAA significantly affects the viscosity, density, and water retention of the solutions. Choosing the right PAA concentration allows for the targeted regulation of the technological parameters of the solutions.
