Article Synopsis
  • PFOA is a nonbiodegradable chemical that persists in the environment and accumulates in water, causing significant environmental problems.
  • Researchers developed two types of porous polymers based on calix[4]arene to effectively remove PFOA from water.
  • One of these polymers showed impressive performance, with the ability to absorb high amounts of PFOA and could be easily regenerated for multiple uses.

Herein, we report a semiconductive, proton-conductive, microporous hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) derived from phenylphosphonic acid and 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[p-phenylphosphonic acid] porphyrin (GTUB5). The structure of GTUB5 was characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction. A narrow band gap of 1.
