[0053] It was seen from Table 2 that the tensile strength and elongation at break of Examples 5 and 6 were significantly improved compared with those of the Comparative Example, and the rebound rate had little change.

Characterization of the Water-Soluble DPG-Based Supramolecular Inclusion Complex

1. Determination of Inclusion Ratio and Inclusion Constant of Inclusion Complex by Ultraviolet-Visible Spectroscopy

[0054] Taking Examples 2 and 4 as examples, the UV titration spectra of HP-?-CD, ?-CDP, and DPG were shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2. It was seen from FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 that with an increase of the concentration of HP-?-CD and ?-CDP, the ultraviolet absorption intensity of DPG increased linearly, indicating that ?-cyclodextrin derivatives formed an inclusion complex with DPG, with an inclusion ratio of 1:1 (the inclusion ratio referred to a molar ratio of the ?-cyclodextrin derivatives to the DPG). According to a Benesi-Hildebrand method (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1949, 71, 8, 2703-2707), it was obtained that: at 25? C., the complexation stability constants of HP-?-CD and ?-CDP with DPG were 26.87 L/mol and 27.88 L/mol, respectively.

2. Infrared Spectral Analysis

[0055] Taking Examples 2 and 4 as examples, the DPG raw material, HP-?-CD, ?-CDP, and their respective inclusion complexes were identified by infrared spectroscopy, and the results were shown in FIG. 3. It was seen from FIG. 3 that the infrared spectrum of the inclusion complex was similar to that of cyclodextrin. However, characteristic peaks of DPG appeared in the spectrum of inclusion complex and red shifted: C?C stretching vibrations of aromatics at 1,581 cm.sup.?1 and 1,540 cm.sup.?1 moved to 1,583 cm.sup.?1 and 1,542 cm.sup.?1, indicating that DPG and ?-cyclodextrin derivatives were subjected to inclusion and formed inclusion complexes.

3. Thermogravimetric Analysis

[0056] Taking Examples 2 and 4 as examples, the thermal stability of DPG raw materials, HP-?-CD, ?-CDP and their respective inclusion complexes were analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis, and the results were shown in FIG. 4. FIG. 4 showed that DPG began to decompose at 166? C. and underwent a second decomposition at 256? C. However, DPG after the inclusion with ?-cyclodextrin derivatives began to decompose only when the temperature reached a melting point of the ?-cyclodextrin derivatives, indicating that the formation of water-soluble DPG-based supramolecular inclusion complex improves the thermal stability of DPG.

4. Solubilization Experiment of the Water-Soluble Supramolecular Inclusion Complex.

[0057] Taking Examples 2 and 4 as examples, the solubilization effect was verified by comparing and analyzing absorption peaks of ultraviolet-visible spectra of the DPG raw material, the DPG-?-CDP inclusion complex, and the DPG-HP-?-CD inclusion complex. The results were shown in FIG. 5, ?-CDP and HP-?-CD had no ultraviolet absorption peaks. Since DPG was insoluble in water, the absorption peak of a DPG aqueous solution was highly weak near 244 nm; however, DPG-?-CDP inclusion complex and DPG-HP-?-CD inclusion complex showed a strong absorption peak at 244 nm. By calculation, DPG had a solubility of 0.315 mg/mL, DPG-?-CDP inclusion complex had a solubility of 24.95 mg/mL, and DPG-HP-?-CD inclusion complex had a solubility of 20.55 mg/mL, indicating that the ?-cyclodextrin derivatives could improve the solubility of DPG very well.
