“…In our previous studies, we have demonstrated that CD functionalized polymeric NF can be potentially used as molecular filters for the air and water filtration by removing organic molecules from the required environment (Kayaci et al, 2013;Kayaci and Uyar, 2014;Uyar et al, 2009Uyar et al, , 2010aUyar et al, , 2010b. The integration of polymeric NF with CD, facilitated the entrapment property of nanofibrous webs owing to the complexation capability of CD molecules located on the fiber surface (Kayaci et al, 2013;Kayaci and Uyar, 2014;Uyar et al, 2009Uyar et al, , 2010aUyar et al, , 2010b. Furthermore, in our very recent study, we eliminated the polymer matrix and we have shown that the polymer-free γ -CD NF can also efficiently encapsulate aniline and toluene vapor from the environment depending on the inclusion complexation so these nanofibrous webs have great potential to be used as a molecular filter (Celebioglu and Uyar, 2013b).…”
