Metal‐Free Submicron‐Hollow‐Fiber Conjugated Polymer Sponges for Efficient Pollutant Removal and Thermal Insulation

Small, EarlyView.
Mimicking natural tubular structures, metal‐free conjugated hollow fibers are synthesized via one‐pot Chichibabin condensation. Pyridinic networks spontaneously self‐assemble into submicron hollow fibers and entangle into spongy monoliths—without templates, metals, or post‐processing.
