Cross-linked polymer nanoparticles were designed and synthesized with cyclodextrins as the starting monomer. These nanoparticles display exemplary adsorption properties in terms of capacity and selectivity, which comes from the synthetic design. The nanoparticles are also highly robust for various practical adsorption applications. The new synthetic method of these nanoparticle materials involves the reaction of cyclodextrin monomers through an emulsion polymerization approach. The size of the nanoparticles can be tuned easily.

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a crystalline functional sweetener, and more specifically, relates to a method for preparing a crystalline functional sweetener for raising the crystallization yield and increasing the particle size by controlling the content of impurities or production of impurities comprised in a solution for preparing the crystal.
