Abstract
These days, researchers have paid much attention to polymeric adsorbents in different aspects, especially the adsorption process owing to their high surface area and strong affinity to trapping toxic particles. This chapter attempts to describe different types of polymeric adsorbents by focusing on their properties including metal–organic framework (MOF), polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM), covalent organic framework (COF), hypercrosslinked polymer (HCP), conjugated microporous polymer (CMP), and porous aromatic framework (PAF). Furthermore, their synthesis reactions are also mentioned with their conventional used precursors. Regarding this chapter, HCPs have been selected as the best candidate due to their excellent porosity and also great uptake capability. Apart from these mentioned cases, the fabrication of HCPs costs a lesser price than most polymeric adsorbents. Besides, this chapter revealed that the selection of monomers and experimental conditions have considerable impacts on creating appropriate skeletons of these polymeric adsorbents.
