Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Chemical Engineering
  • Nanotechnology

Background:

  • Controlling the stacking of 2D materials is crucial for tuning their properties.
  • Synthesizing materials with specific layer arrangements remains a significant challenge.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a synthetic strategy for controlling the interlayer stacking of imide-linked 2D covalent organic frameworks (COFs).
  • To investigate the impact of different stacking modes (ABC vs. AA) on COF properties and gas separation performance.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a modulator-assisted synthesis to achieve ABC stacking in COFs.
  • Employed solvothermal synthesis to obtain AA stacking in COFs.
  • Characterized the morphology, porosity, and gas adsorption properties of the synthesized COFs.

Main Results:

  • Successfully synthesized COFs with distinct ABC and AA stacking modes.
  • Demonstrated that ABC stacking significantly enhances C2H2 adsorption capacity and selectivity over CO2 and C2H4.
  • Confirmed the practical gas separation capabilities of ABC stacking COFs through breakthrough experiments, showing selective C2H2 removal with recyclability.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed modulator-assisted method provides effective control over COF interlayer stacking.
  • Tailoring stacking modes offers a new pathway to optimize COF performance for gas separation applications.
  • This work opens new avenues for designing advanced 2D materials with tunable functionalities.
