Covalent Organic Frameworks: Synthesis and Applications
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), a versatile class of crystalline porous polymers, are formed by covalent bonding and can have various 2D as well as 3D molecular structures. Their unique structure depicted by the efficient linking of atoms in two and three dimensions allows the formation of extended framework structures and results in large surface area and porosity, high modifiability, low density, biocompatibility, high chemical stability and availability of sufficient building blocks. Researchers have devised methods... see more
