Water cluster in hydrophobic crystalline porous covalent organic frameworks

Research on water confinement in small hydrophobic pores remains scarce because of a preconception that small hydrophobic pores repulse water molecules. Here, the authors demonstrate water confinement across hydrophobic microporous channels in crystalline covalent organic frameworks.
