Abstract The excellent ammonia adsorption properties of [Cu(bpy) 2 (OTf) 2 ] n (ELM‐12; bpy=4,4′‐bipyridine, OTf=trifluoromethanesulfonate) make it unique for the removal of ammonia at low concentrations, but its instability under humid conditions restrict its practical applications. Herein, a functionalized ELM‐12@PDMS (PDMS=polydimethylsiloxane) composite was prepared by coating a nanoscale PDMS layer on the ELM‐12 surface, which significantly increased its hydrophobicity. The dynamic ammonia adsorption properties of ELM‐12 and ELM‐12@PDMS were explored by means of kinetic breakthrough measurements under dry and humid conditions. ELM‐12@PDMS can effectively capture ammonia at 100 ppm when maintained under 80 % relative humidity, which makes it promising for real applications.
