Triazine-based porous organic polymers for reversible capture of iodine and utilization in antibacterial application.

ABSTRACT: The capture and safe storage of radioactive iodine (¹²⁹I or ¹³¹I) are of a compelling significance in the generation of nuclear energy and waste storage. Because of their physiochemical properties, Porous Organic Polymers (POPs) are considered to be one of the most sought classes of materials for iodine capture and storage. Herein, we report on the preparation and characterization of two triazine-based, nitrogen-rich, porous organic polymers, NRPOP-1 (SA_BET = 519 m² g^-1) and NRPOP-2 (SA_BET = 456 m² g^-1), by reacting 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine or 1,4-bis-(2,4-diamino-1,3,5-triazine)-benzene with thieno[2,3-b]thiophene-2,5-dicarboxaldehyde, respectively, and their use in the capture of volatile iodine.
