Recent Advances in Nanofabrication of the Morphology-Controlled Hypercrosslinked Polymers

Abstract

Hypercrosslinked Polymers (HCPs) have received considerable attention in the field of catalysis, adsorption, separation, biomedical engineering, and energy storage/conversion, because of their permanent microporous structures and high surface areas. Up to now, various "bottom-up" and "top-down" methods have been reported to synthesize of the HCPs with diverse morphologies, and these morphologies have been demonstrated to play a significant role in various applications. In this review, we summarized the latest research in the design of morphology-controlled HCPs by using three kinds of main methods and we also emphasized on the template free solutions. Furthermore, the future developments and challenges for fabricating of morphology-controlled HCPs are also presented in this review.

Hyper-Crosslinked Porous Organic Nanomaterials: Structure-Oriented Design and Catalytic Applications

“…Previous studies have explored the impact of hierarchical pore structures on catalytic performance [ 40 ]. Additionally, the literature has documented the synthesis methods for creating shape-controllable hyper-crosslinked polymer nanoparticles [ 41 ]. However, existing reviews typically focus only on one aspect, either the catalytic applications or the synthesis methods, rarely delving into the deep connections between the two, especially the effects of pore structures and morphologies on catalytic performances [ 21 , 42 , 43 ].…”
