The adoption of new synthesis strategy and monomers significantly promotes the construction of porous organic polymers (POPs) and their promising applications. A fabricating method of porous polyimides is developed via sequential imidization and cross‐linking reaction among self‐condensable building blocks, as reported in the authors' previous manuscript. Herein, porous polyureas (A‐POPs) are prepared starting from 4‐ethynylaniline and diisocyanate monomers, while porous polyamides (B‐POPs) are synthesized from 4‐ethynylbenzoic acid and diisocyanate monomers. It is found that decreasing the monomer content in solvent can effectively inhibit the premature phase separation and facilitate the evolution of integrated network. Eventually, a maximum surface area of 425 m2 g−1 is achieved for porous polyureas when the content of monomers is 10%. To the best knowledge, A‐POPs are the porous polyureas with the highest surface areas reported up to now. The as‐prepared porous polyurea (AN‐POP) exhibits the maximum adsorption capacity of 1093.87 ± 5.23 mg g−1 and removal rate of 99.96% for Au(III), due to its high surface area and the coordination between the heteroatoms (N and O) in A‐POPs and metal ions. Besides, the porous polyurea also exhibits excellent renewable efficiency and high selectivity to Au(III).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
