“…Covalento rganic frameworks (COFs) [1] represent af ascinating new type of crystalline porous organic materials, whicha re ingeniously constructed with organic building blocks via strong covalentb onds throught he principleso fr eticular chemistry. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] In comparison with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) [12,13] or their inorganic counterparts, zeolites, [14,15] COFs stand out due to their low density, [4,16,17] large surface area, [8,16] good thermals tability, [16] tuneablep ore size, [4,17] structure and functionality designability, [8,18] as well as their versatile covalent bondingo fo rganic synthetic blocks, [19][20][21][22][23] consisting of light elements only. [1,10,17,24] These characteristicsh ave offered the COF materials superior potential in various fields, such as gas storage, [17,25,26] adsorption, [4,27,28] optoelectronics, [29] energy storage [30] and conversion, [31] proton conduction, [32] drug del...…”
