In this paper, a simple immobilization of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) on silica from rice husk ash is reported. Silica isolated from rice husk ash is chlorinated with 3-(chloropropyl)triethoxysilane (CPTES) for the attachment of chlorine group on the surface of silica via a simple sol-gel technique. Imm...
