Synthesis and characterization of fluorescent polymer

Abstract

High molecular weight, micro-porous and covalent organic frameworks are new generation of organic polymeric materials that are developed for catalysis, micro-filtration and storage purposes that require very high specific surface and porosity.

The present research aims to synthesizing micro-porous and fluorescent polymer by microwave assisted synthesis allowing reducing preparation time to 9 hours instead of 3 days at 180 °C using conventional method.

The results obtained have clearly demonstrated the efficiency of this method for the synthesis of Schiff based network melamine polymer exhibiting fluorescence property and micro- porosity.
