Popis: Bis-octyloxy-calix[4]arene-mono-crown-6 (BOCMC) is a selective ligand for Cs(I) cation, and has been used in solvent extraction method for its separation from acidic feed. Looking at the various advantages and ease of extraction chromatography separation method, an attempt was made to prepare stable composite beads containing BOCMC entrapped in a suitable polymeric matrix. Therefore, an attempt was made to prepare a series of composite polymeric beads containing BOCMC in polysulfone (PS), polyether sulfone (PES) and sodium alginate polymeric matrix. Preparations of the beads were attempted by dissolving the solid BOCMC in the polymer solution, and also by using the ligand solution in isodecanol/dodecane and ionic liquids and then mixing in the polymeric solution. Every attempt failed to get the desired quality of beads in PES and sodium alginate matrix. However, very good quality and stable beads were obtained when 25 mM ligand solution dissolved in C
