Conjugated porous polymers for energy applications

Abstract: Efforts and challenges when synthesizing, characterizing and testing conjugated porous polymers (CPPs) in fields related to energy storage, conversion and production are reviewed from the author's perspective. The current state-of-the-art of such materials from synthesis and morphological control to applications that encompass gas and energy storage, catalysis and hydrogen production is reviewed. Contrary to classical p-conjugated polymers, special emphasis is given to the morphological aspects of CPPs and the… Show more

“…[1][2][3] Their microporosity and design flexibility can potentially be exploited in a variety of fields such as catalysis, 2,3 sensors for trace substances detection, 4 energy conversion and storage, 5,6 and membranebased separations. 7,8 Among the above materials, polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) are the most promising porous polymer class for membrane applications, due to their combination of high permeability and selectivity as well as good solution processability.…”

“…Many chemists and materials scientists focus on this field and contribute to the design and synthesis of POFs. The representative POFs, including polymers of intrinsicmicroporosity (PIMs) [2][3][4], HCPs [17,18], conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) [19,20], and porous aromatic frameworks (PAFs) [21][22][23][24][25][26], etc., constitute typical classes of covalently linked amorphous organic porous materials.…”

“…[23,[30][31][32] Then, CMP-1 was calcined at 400 8C for 2 h, then kept at 700 8C for 4 h to obtain the porous hard carbon (PHC-1). Computational simulations show that CMP-1 has a porous three-dimensional network structure arising from the three-pronged butadiynylene linkages (Figure 1 a).…”

“…In particular, traditional synthesis methods involving the carbonization of low-vapor-pressure polymeric precursors 19,21] or natural sources [20] have their respective drawbacks, which are mostly associated with cross-linking reactions that proceed with concomitant char formation or uncontrolled vaporization during high-temperature pyrolysis. [22] Conjugated microporous polymers (CMP) have received considerable research interest because of their 3D interlinked porous structure, large Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface areas, and good chemical stability [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] with regard to potential applications for the selected adsorption of organic solvents [24] and gas adsorption. [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33] More interestingly, the surface areas and pore volumes of the CMP could be easily tuned by using different monomers with various molecule lengths, making them ideal candidates for preparation of porous carbon.…”
