Hyper-crosslinked porous polymer based on bulk rigid monomer for gas and dye absorptions

Abstract

Using the rigid 3,3-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(4-tritylphenyl)isoindolin-1-one with polar functional groups as a building block and formaldehyde dimethyl acetal(FDA) as a crossinglinker, a new hyper-crosslinked polymer (HCP) was synthesized via Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction promoted by anhydrous FeCl₃. The synthesized HCP is insoluble in boiled water and common organic solvents. Moreover, it shows a good CO₂ capture capacity even if its surface area is not very high, and the absolute CO₂ uptake capacity of it is 3.05 mmol/g. This can be attributed to the introduction of polar hydroxyl and lactam groups into the skeleton of the polymer which provides effective adsorption sites for CO₂. In addition, the synthesized HCP also exhibits good adsorption capacity for organic dyes in water, especially for crystal violet.
