Abstract: An adsorption apparatus and associated method for capturing an target gaseous adsorbate from an atmospheric air based gaseous feed stream.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a polymer composite for controlled release of an agent. In particular, the present invention relates to a stimuli-responsive polymer composite that can provide for controlled release of an agent in response to light. The polymer composite may be particularly suitable for the controlled delivery of a drug that is modulated by light.

Abstract: A composition for gas storage including a mixture of particles of amorphous macroporous organic polymer (MOP) and particles of a metallic organic framework (MOF).
