Professor Ángel E. Lozano's research lab specializes in the design and synthesis of advanced polymeric materials with tailored microstructures for high-performance applications. The lab focuses on developing microporous and ultramicroporous polymers, including porous polymer networks and aromatic polyimides, with exceptional thermal stability and tunable porosity for gas separation and carbon dioxide capture. A key research direction involves the use of rigid, bulky monomers—such as triptycene, adamantane, and aromatic diamines—to create materials that undergo thermal rearrangement into highly stable, functionalized networks like polybenzoxazoles (TR-PBO). The group also explores innovative synthetic methodologies, such as in situ silylation and superacid-catalyzed reactions, to achieve precise control over polymer architecture and surface properties.

A new generation of porous polymer networks has been obtained in quantitative yield by reacting two rigid trifunctional aromatic monomers (1,3,5-triphenylbenzene and triptycene) with two ketones having electron-withdrawing groups (trifluoroacetophenone and isatin) in superacidic media. The resulting amorphous networks are microporous materials, with moderate Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface areas (from 580 to 790 m<sup>2</sup> g<sup>-1</sup>), and have high thermal stability. In particular, isatin
A new nucleophilic monomer (2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)adamantane, ADHAB) having bulky adamantane groups has been synthesized following an efficient synthetic methodology. The main target of this work was to employ a high thermal stable bulky cycloaliphatic moiety as adamantane to obtain aromatic ortho-hydroxypolyimides (poly(o-hydroxyimide)s) able to thermally rearrange to give polybenzoxazole (TR-PBO) materials that could be tested as gas separation membranes. Thus, an array of ortho-acet

Abstract A series of polyisophthalamides having pendent oligomeric benzamide groups were prepared by the Yamazaki reaction from common aromatic diamines and 5‐(4‐benzoylamino‐1‐benzoylamino)isophthalic acid. The latter was synthesized from 5‐aminoisophthalic acid in a three‐step synthesis by successive incorporation of benzamido groups. The new polymers were characterized by NMR, DSC, TGA, and WAXD and the properties were compared to those of corresponding unsubstituted polyisophthalamides. All
Abstract Soluble polyimides were prepared from suitable monomers and were evaluated for their thermal and mechanical properties. The polymers were processed into films for use as supports for transparent, conductive indium tin oxide (ITO) layers. After deposition, annealing in vacuo at temperatures up to 400°C was performed to test the ability of the materials to endure typical device fabrication temperatures without damage to the ITO‐coated polymeric substrate. The evolution of the structural,
Abstract A set of new aromatic poly(ether amide)s containing benzimidazole groups and ethylene oxide sequences of different lengths were synthesized and characterized. The new polymers were prepared from two benzimidazole diamines, 2‐(4‐aminophenyl)‐5‐aminobenzimidazole and 2‐(3‐aminophenyl)‐5‐aminobenzimidazole, and various oligo(ethylene oxide)dibenzoyl chlorides. They exhibited good solubility in polar aprotic solvents and glass‐transition temperatures in the range of 125–300 °C (the longer t
Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) have been obtained by blending an aromatic ortho-hydroxypolyimide (PIOH) or an ortho-acetylpolyimide (PIOAc) with different loading amounts (15 and 30 wt %) of a microporous polymer network (PPN), which was obtained from the reaction of triptycene and isatin. The excellent thermal resistance of the PPN (above 500 °C) allowed it to be used as a filler to successfully prepare thermally rearranged polybenzoxazole (TR-PBO)-MMMs obtained from the thermal treatment of the

Abstract A series of polyisophthalamides containing pendent phenylthio groups was prepared from seven aromatic diamines and 5‐phenylthioisophthalic acid by the phosphorylation polycondensation method. The properties of these polymers were compared with those of the analogous unmodified ones. The modified polymers exhibited better solubility in organic solvents than their unmodified counterparts. They also showed glass transition temperatures that were lower by approximately 30°C. However, the pr
