Abstract

Composites on a porous support of an insolubilized, crosslinked cyclodextrin show improved mass transfer characteristics relative to discrete particles of the same insolubilized cyclodextrin. Dicarboxylic acid dihalides are particularly effective crosslinking agents. The composites can be prepared quite simply and cost effectively by impregnating a support, such as alumina, with a cyclodextrin, then reacting the cyclodextrin within the impregnated support with a suitable dicarboxylic acid dihalide, such as one from the alkane dicarboxylic acid series containing from 4 through 12 carbon atoms.
