    摘要: Described herein are covalent organic frameworks. The covalent organic frameworks have unique structural and physical properties, which lends them to be versatile in a number of different applications and uses. In one aspect, the covalent organic frameworks are composed of a plurality of fused aromatic groups and electron-deficient chromophores. The covalent organic frameworks are useful as photocatalysts in a number of different applications.

    摘要: Compositions are provided for efficient uranium extraction, for example from wastewater, seawater, or other water sources. The compositions can include a functionalized porous organic polymer functionalized with one or more uranium binding moieties, e.g. having a plurality of amidoxime or amidrazone groups covalently attached thereto. The compositions can include covalent organic frameworks, porous aromatic frameworks, and various porous organic polymers, especially those having a hierarchical pore size distribution over a range of pore sizes. The compositions can have functional groups such as amidoxime or an amidrazone covalently attached thereto. The hierarchical pore size distribution can be determined based upon at least 60% of the pore sizes in the range of pore sizes having a pore volume of at least 0.01 cm3 g−1 in the pore size distribution at 77 K. Methods of making the compositions and methods of using the compositions are also provided.
