Adsorption and visible-light photodegradation of organic dyes with TiO/conjugated microporous polymer composites

A series of composite materials made of TiO 2 and conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) were prepared with a hydrothermal method and used as both adsorbents and photocatalysts for the adsorption and visible-light photodegradation of organic dyes in aqueous solutions. It is found that the blending of CMPs can significantly improve both the adsorption capacity and the photocatalytic degradation activity of TiO 2 towards organic dyes.
