A new study entitled “One-pot scalable production of conjugated microporous polymers with exceptional functionality“, authored by collaborators from Engineering Research Centre of Reactive Distillation of Fuzhou University, John Worth, and Charl Faul, has now been published Open Access in Journal of Materials Chemistry A !

Here we report on a one-pot scalable synthesis method using autoclaves to produce conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) with enhanced surface area and exceptional adsorption capabilities for CO₂ and heavy metal ions. With degas-free and facile scale-up opportunities, this method opens real possibilities for wide industrial applications of CMPs.
