Two water-stable covalent organic frameworks (COFs) named NUS-2 and NUS-3 having two-dimensional (2D) layered structures with different pore sizes were synthesized. These COFs were exfoliated into nanosheets and even monolayers with high aspect ratio. They were subsequently blended with commercial p...
