ABSTRACT
The research of novel crystalline
porous materials mainly focuses on the syntheses and applications of metal-organic
frameworks (MOFs, also known as porous coordination polymers (PCPs)), covalent
organic frameworks (COFs), and supramolecular organic frameworks (SOFs,
including hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs)). The novel crystalline
porous materials are famous for their high surface areas, various structures,
and adjustable functions, which show extensive application prospects in energy-,
environment-, and catalysis-related fields. Therefore, novel crystalline porous
materials have attracted great interests of scientists. In recent years, a
series of fundamental and applied researches related to novel crystalline
porous materials have been made. However, the rational design and synthesis of
novel crystalline porous materials are still challenging, and further
investigations are still highly required for the development of this field.
