“…The new silica-bound complexing agents can be useful in a wide range of problems related to heterogeneous catalysis (9, 10), metal ion preconcentration (11,12), ion exchange (13,14), stationary phases for chromatography (15,16), enzyme catalysts (17,18), biotechnology (19), and so on. However, the use of those new materials to immobilize agrochemical compounds is rarely explored and only one report presents this suggested application (20).…”
