Organic compounds are promising electrode materials because of their resource sustainability, environmental friendliness, and highly tailorable properties. The porous conjugated polymer shows great potential as an electrode material for its tunable redox nature, conjugated skeleton, and porous structure. Herein, a novel conjugated porous polymer, polydiaminophenylsulfone-triazine, was synthesized by a simple nucleophilic substitution reaction. The conjugated structure and triazine ring can improve the conductivity, charge-transfer efficiency, and physicochemical stability. Also, the porous polymeric framework shows a large specific surface area and high porosity, providing a large contact area with electrolytes and reducing diffusion distance. The polymer demonstrates highly stable cycling performance and good rate capability as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, suggesting a promising strategy to design a competitive electrode material.
