Gas guzzler: The introduction of polyamines in porous polymer networks results in significant enhancement of CO2-uptake capacities at low pressures. The best substituted network was found to exhibit high adsorption enthalpies for CO2 and the largest selectivity (see graph) of any porous material reported to date. It also had outstanding physicochemical stability and could be regenerated under mild conditions.
