AI Article Synopsis
- - Two new types of crystalline porous polymers (CPPs) based on triazine and phenyl cores were created using a one-step, template-free method.
- - The CPPs exhibited different shapes (ribbon and hollow sphere) due to changes in the planarity of the linker used in their synthesis.
- - A study showed that the arrangement of molecular building blocks impacts their structure and morphology, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicated that how well these layers stack affects the final shapes of the CPPs.
Article Abstract
Two new chemically stable triazine- and phenyl-core-based crystalline porous polymers (CPPs) have been synthesized using a single-step template-free solvothermal route. Unique morphological diversities were observed for these CPPs [2,3-DhaTta (ribbon) and 2,3-DhaTab (hollow sphere)] by simply altering the linker planarity. A detailed time-dependent study established a significant correlation between the molecular level structures of building blocks with the morphology of CPPs. Moreover, a DFT study was done for calculating the interlayer stacking energy, which revealed that the extent of stacking efficiency is responsible for governing the morphological diversity in these CPPs.
