TL;DR: A scalable fabrication method to grow large area defect free COF membranes and to tune the pore size in the sub-nm region by adjusting the stacking modes of the COF layers is reported.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of two-dimensional (2D) COFs from flexible building blocks (FBBs) with different content of intralayer hydrogen bonds were synthesized.

TL;DR: The design and synthesis of a new "stereoscopic" 2D super-microporous phosphazene-based covalent organic framework (MPCOF) is reported by using hexachorocyclotriphosphazene (a P-containing monomer in a C3-like spatial configuration) and p-phenylenediamine (a linker).

TL;DR: A series of colyliform crystalline 2D COFs with quasi-three-dimensional (Q-3D) topologies, consisting of unique "stereoscopic" triangular pores, large interlayer spacings and flexible constitutional units which makes the pores elastic and self-adaptable for the object transmission, to be reliably applied to the rapid removal of radioactive iodine under special circumstances of emergency response to nuclear accidents.

TL;DR: The proposed strategy successfully achieved the synergistic improvement of both stability and functionality for the desired adsorbing materials and is of considerable practical utility in the field of design and preparation of reliable high-performance absorbents.
