Synthesis and characterization of highly porous borazine-linked polymers and their performance in hydrogen storage application

Abstract
A new class of highly porous borazine-linked polymers (BLPs) has been synthesized utilizing arylamines and boron trihalides. BLPs exhibit Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface areas in the range of 503 to 1364 m2 g−1 and store up to 1.3 wt% of hydrogen with 7.1 kJ mol−1 isosteric heat of adsorption.
