Abstract: A method of adsorbing a highly reactive gas onto an adsorbent material comprising adsorbing the highly reactive gas to the adsorbent material. The adsorbent material comprises at least one Lewis basic functional group, or pores of a size to hold a single molecule of the highly reactive gas, or inert moieties which are provided to the adsorbent material at the same time at the same time as the highly reactive gas, prior to adsorbing the highly reactive gas or after adsorbing the highly reactive gas, or the highly reactive gas reacts with moieties of the adsorbent material resulting in passivation of the adsorbent material. A rate of decomposition of the adsorbed highly reactive gas is lower than a rate of decomposition for the neat gas at equal volumetric loadings and equal temperatures for both the adsorbed highly reactive gas and the neat gas.

Abstract: A porous material, including metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous organic polymer (POP), with reactivity with or sorptive affinity towards (a) electronic gas to substantially remove or abate electronic gas in an electronic gas-containing effluent, or (b) contaminants in a stream of electronic gas to substantially remove the contaminants from a stream of electronic gas and increase the purity of said electronic gas, or (c) trace mercury contaminant in a hydrocarbon stream to substantially remove said mercury contaminant and increase the purity of said hydrocarbon stream. MOFs are the coordination product of metal ions and multidentate organic ligands, whereas POPs are the product of polymerization between organic monomers.

Abstract: A metal organic framework (MOF) includes a coordination product of a metal ion and an at least bidentate organic ligand, where the metal ion and the organic ligand are selected to provide a deliverable adsorption capacity of at least 70 g/l for an electronic gas. A porous organic polymer (POP) includes polymerization product from at least a plurality of organic monomers, where the organic monomers are selected to provide a deliverable adsorption capacity of at least 70 g/l for an electronic gas.
