  • Patent number: 7989537
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a molding composition, comprising from 10 to 99.999% by weight of at least one polyoxymethylene as component (A1) and from 0.001 to 10% by weight, based on the weight of component (A1) present in the molding composition, of at least one zeolitic material whose pore diameter is in the range from 0.3 to 0.5 nm, determined to DIN 66134 and DIN 66135, where the size of the particles of the zeolitic material is in the range from 3 to 7 ?m, determined to ISO 13320, and also to moldings that can be produced from this molding composition.

  • Patent number: 7815716
    Abstract: The invention relates to a porous metal-organic framework material for taking up at least one substance, the framework material comprising at least one at least bidentate organic compound bound by coordination to at least one metal ion, and the framework material having at least in part pores which comprise a polymer which is suitable to adsorb the at least one substance. In addition, the invention relates to a method for producing the framework material, a method for taking up at least one substance by the framework material and also to the use of the framework material, in particular for the storage, separation, controlled release or chemical reaction of a substance taken up.
