A moisture-triggered release system was developed using porous metal-organic materials as encapsulating agents. Release of both hydrophilic (ethyl butyrate) and hydrophobic (D-limonene) fragrance compounds investigated by gas adsorption measurement, thermogravimetric analysis chromatography-mass spectroscopy. These exhibit exceptional compatibility controlled compared to the current leading encapsulation technology.
