An organic nitrogen/oxygen-rich polymer (PFN-NDIN) was prepared via Suzuki reaction between 2,7-bis(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)-9,9-bis(3-N,N- dimethylaminopropyl)-9H-fluorene (FNB) and 4,9-dibromo-2,7-bis(3-(dimethyl-amino)propyl)naphthalenediimide (NDINBr 2 ) and utilized as a new inhibitor for HRB400 steels corrosion in alkaline medium of simulated concrete pore solution. The inhibition efficiency of this inhibitor was evaluated by electrochemical techniques. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results showed that the protective capacity of PFN-NDIN on HRB400 steel increased with increasing concentration to attain 92.85% efficacy with 400 ppm at 288 K. Potentiodynamic polarization (PDP) plots indicated that PFN-NDIN is effective and acts as a hybrid inhibitor. The adsorption behavior of PFN-NDIN was fitted and found to follow the Langmuir isothermal adsorption line, with discussion of the relevant thermodynamic parameters. The effect of temperature on this inhibitor's the rust-inhibiting effect was investigated. The surface was then studied, showing that the interfacial corrosion of HRB400 steel was inhibited by PFN-NDIN molecules. The relationship between PFN-NDIN molecules’ structure and the inhibition efficiency was investigated by quantum chemical calculations. Several parameters were calculated, the findings revealed that the prepared materials correlated well with their electronic contribution capability.

Porous organic Polymers (POPs) can not only exhibit high specific surface area and pore volume, but also tunable pore size distribution. Herein, copolymers of 2-hydroxyethylmethylacrylate (HEMA) and divinylbenzene (DVB) with specific pore structure were synthesized via a dispersion polymerization strategy, and then immobilized metallocene catalysts with well-defined pore structure were obtained on the produced POP supports. The nitrogen sorption and Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) results demonstrate that the pore structure of the immobilized metallocene catalyst is highly dependent on the pore structure of the POPs , and the pore structure of metallocene catalysts or the POPs has a significant influence on the molecular chain growth of the produced polyethylene. By tuning the distribution of the active species scattered in the micro- and the narrow meso-pore range (roughly ≤4 nm), the chain growth of the polyolefin can be tailored effectively during the polymerization process, although differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and temperature rising elution fractionation (TREF) results show that the chemical composition distributions (CCDs) of produced PE from the POPs-supported metallocene catalysts are not determined by polymerization activity or molecule chain length, but mainly by the active site species scattered in the supported catalysts. Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) shows that the produced polyethylene has highly porous fabric which consists of nanofiber and spherical beads of micron dimension.
