Hydrophobic covalent organic frameworks: a green synthesis approach for efficient oil/water separation.

ABSTRACT: Rapid economic development has led to oil pollution and energy shortage. Thus, it is highly desirable to develop an efficient and environment-friendly approach for oil/water (O/W) separation. Herein, we report a simple and green method for preparing macroscopic COF AG and AG. COF AG was rapidly synthesized at room temperature, washed and freeze-dried to prepare COF AG without any adhesives or additives. Due to its strong hydrophobicity, COF AG is used as an absorbent for removing organic pollutants in O/W separation, and has a certain demulsification performance, which has a certain application prospect in the field of O/W separation. The hydrophobic COF AG material was combined with MA, which was synthesized in one step at room temperature, avoiding the long reaction conditions of traditi
