Water desalination concept using an ionic rectifier based on a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM)

We describe ion current rectification using a Polymer of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIM) based on Tröger's base (PIM-EA-TB). When deposited asymmetrically over one (or more) 20 μm diameter hole(s) in 6 μm thick poly(ethylene...

Reagentless electrochemiluminescence from a nanoparticulate polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) immobilized onto tin-doped indium oxide

In contrast to most common electrochemiluminescence (ECL) techniques that require either an additional reagent or continuous pulsing between oxidative and reductive potentials, here a fluorescent polymer of intrinsic...

Fuel cell anode catalyst performance can be stabilized with a molecularly rigid film of polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIM)

There remains a major materials challenge in maintaining the performance of platinum (Pt) anode catalysts in fuel cells due to corrosion and blocking of active sites. Herein, we report a new materials strategy for improving...

Intrinsically microporous polymer slows down fuel cell catalyst corrosion

The limited stability of fuel cell cathode catalysts causes a significant loss of operational cell voltage with commercial Pt-based catalysts, which hinders the wider commercialization of fuel cell technologies. We...

Polymers of intrinsic microporosity as high temperature templates for the formation of nanofibrous oxides
The highly rigid molecular structure of Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIM) – associated with a high thermolysis threshold – combined with the possibility to fill intrinsic micropores allows the direct “one-step” templated...

Polymers of intrinsic microporosity in electrochemistry

Anion uptake and charge transport in a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (here PIM-EA-TB) is investigated for three cases: (i) the oxidation of ferrocene embedded into a thin film of PIM-EA-TB on a glassy carbon electrode...

Intrinsically porous polymer protects catalytic gold particles for enzymeless glucose oxidation

The enzymeless glucose oxidation process readily occurs on nano-gold electrocatalyst at pH7, but it is highly susceptible to poisoning (competitive binding), for example from protein or chloride. Is it shown here that gold...
