The reliance on fossil fuel resources, dating back to the Industrial Revolution, has led to drastically increasing energy demands, and a resulting increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2), in the atmosphere. These rising CO2 levels are recognized as a global problem that requires new approaches, including novel functional materials, to solve this challenge.1 To contribute solutions to address these challenges, we have focused our efforts in recent years on the production of functional polymeric materials.2 The focus in this presentation will be on the various strategies we are employing to tune properties, structure and functionality in conjugated microporous polymeric (CMP) materials.3
