INTERMOLECULARLY BOUND TRANSITION ELEMENT COMPLEXES FOR OXYGEN-SELECTIVE ADSORPTION

摘要

A process and composition for selectively adsorbing oxygen from a gaseous mixture. The chemisorption is carried out by a porous three- dimensional transition element complex comprised of intermolecularly bound TEC units, said units further comprised of at least one multidentate ligand forming at least one five- or six-membered chelate ring on each unit.
