• a high surface area and a high total pore volume. The BET specific surface areas of P3 was up to 769 m2 g−1 with narrow pore size distribution and the CO2 adsorption capacity of P11 was up to 52.4 cm3 g−1 (273 K/1.00 bar). Keywords: 9-phenylcarbazole; CO2 uptake; Friedel–Crafts polymerization

• carbon. Based on the above peaks in the solid state NMR, the Friedel–Crafts polymerization product was confirmed. TGA analysis The thermal stability of HCPs was investigated by TGA tests (Figure 3 and Supporting Information File 1, Figure S3). A slight weight loss at 100 °C was observed for P2, P4, P5

• be obtained. Those provided a reference for preparing HCPs using Friedel–Crafts polymerization. The BET specific surface area of the prepared HCPs was up to 769 m2 g−1, and the CO2 uptake capacity was up to 10.4 wt % at 273 K/1 bar. Experimental Materials 9-Phenylcarbazole, FDA and DCE were purchased
