Abstract:
Exfoliation of a family of polyacetylenic porous layered covalent organic frameworks by means of a simple sonication procedure results in the obtention of nanolayer structures as observed by AFM and TEM measurements. Systematic AFM analysis of the isolated nanostructures reveals that the degree of exfoliation depends on the polymer architecture, thinner layers being observed when the pore size decreases.
