Study on the Synthesis and Adsorption Properties of KH-560 Modified PalygorskiteSupported β-Cyclodextrin

<正>1 Results Palygorskite (PGS) is a chain-layer magnesium-aluminum silicate mineral. Because of its developed interior channels and large specific surface area, and thus considerable adsorption capacity, it has been studied for the application as one of environmental mineral adsorbents[1-3]. Cyclodextrins (CD) possess a hydrophilic exterior and a hydrophobic interior into which a variety of hydrophobic organic molecules maybe introduced. The CD molecule not only affects a hydrophilic cavity on the nanometer scale, generally smaller than the zeolitic cavities, but also possesses hydrophilic hydroxyl groups outside the cavity, which contribute to the solubility of CD in water[4-5].
