These are immobilized by adding supports based on natural silica to form polymers and make them insoluble in all types of solvents, so that they can be used as an extractor and at the same time regenerate to their original properties for continuous reuse. %K Extraction %K Amalgamation %K Polymer %K Natural Silicate %K Calixarene %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=132620
