ES2684052
Porous conjugated polymers, materials that comprise them, method of preparation and use thereof. Porous conjugated polymers (PCP) formed by repeating units comprising a core comprising at least one aryl group, the core being attached to at least three branches, wherein each branch comprises a structure of formula I or a structure of formula II, wherein the substituents are defined as in the description. The present invention also relates to hybrid materials comprising a PCP as defined in the present invention and an inorganic semiconductor, as well as methods of preparing the same. The invention also makes reference to the use of PCPs and hybrid materials as photocatalysts.
Patent complementary of EP22382566.2 Method for preparing conjugate porous polymers and uses thereof. Advantages and Innovations: nanoCPPs shows processable properties which are not available for CPPs synthesized in bulk. At the same time, they show improved properties such as high micro- and mesoporosity, light harvesting, high conductivity, and great thermal, chemical and photo stability. The technology is very useful because it combines: - The process to synthetize different nanostructured Conjugated Porous Polymers, nanoCPPs, with properties that combine high micro- and mesoporosity, and great thermal, chemical and photo stability, as well as other properties that may be tailored such as light harvesting, conductivity, etc. - The different materials, nanoCPPs, with particular applications according to their chemical composition, structure and properties. In addition, nanoCPPs can be processed in liquid phase applying them in thin layers or using plastic technologies such as extrusion, injection, etc. Both CPPs and nanoCPPs can be used for a wide range of applications, including gas storage, catalysis and optoelectronics, due to their remarkable properties such as high micro- and mesoporosity, light harvesting, high conductivity, and great thermal, chemical and photo stability.

Conjugated Porous Polymers, CPPs, have been synthetized and characterized at lab scale. Preparation techniques environmentally friendly and scalable to produce nanoestructured CPPs in a controlled, reproducible and profitable way were developed. A proof of concept project was performed in order to develop the synthesis of nanostructured CPPs by means of miniemulsion microfluidic techniques. Its objective is to facilitate nanostructured CPPs commercialization, developing preparation techniques environmentally friendly and scalable that allow to produce CPPs in a controlled size and shape as well as reproducible and profitable way.
