He doesn't exactly capture it. _Issola_, p. 128, V to Teldra:
"Amorphia will take, uh, some measurable fraction of a section before it
begins to operate on matter that comes in contact with it. The trick is
just to get it before it destroys or alters whatever vessel you're using
to capture it."
And he does get it in time, and executes ("or perhaps I should say"
*releases*) his spell, and what had been a ceramic bottle with some
amorphia in it is now a chaos stone (p. 130).
