Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have broad application prospects in adsorption and separation. Yet, as COFs are generally in powder form, their superior performance at the laboratory scale is difficult to transfer into pilot- or industrial-scale use. Thus, there is a strong and urgent need to str...
