Crosslinked PEI-impregnated sorbents were fabricated by wet-impregnation method.
BDDE with diepoxide was selected as an optimal crosslinker.
Leaching and evaporation of PEI were prevented by the crosslinking of PEI.
The formation of urea was also prohibited with BDDE crosslinking.
BDDE crosslinking of impregnated PEI improved physical and chemical stabilities.
