title: Adsorption of rutin with a novel β-cyclodextrin polymer adsorbent: thermodynamic and kinetic study.
abstract: The adsorption properties toward rutin of a cyclodextrin polymer adsorbent CroCD-TuC 3 have been studied. The adsorption capacity is reduced as temperature and pH of solution rises, but increases with the increase of solvent polarity. Compared with Sephadex™ G-15 dextran gel beads, CroCD-TuC 3 shows dramatically higher isosteric enthalpy due to a significant contribution of rutin/β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex formation in CroCD-TuC 3 skeleton. A highlight in our study is that the pore diffusion model has been employed to describe the mass transfer inside the adsorbent pores. It reveals that the diffusion inside the pores is the rate-restricting step in the whole adsorption process. The effective pore diffusivity of rutin in CroCD-TuC 3 calculated is much lower than the diffusivity in diluted solution. The pore diffusion model is an available tool to investigate the profile of mass transfer inside the pores, and provides an effective method to describe adsorption kinetics.
