1. A gas adsorption material comprising:
adsorbent particles including polymerized droplets defining nanocavities therein with functional groups covalently incorporated on walls of the nanocavities, the functional groups having an affinity for a target gas, the nanocavities being molecular imprints previously occupied by template molecules which have been removed, the template molecules being a structural analogue to one or more molecules of the target gas, the adsorbent particles having a specific surface area SBET of 328-443 m2/g.
