A simple, fast, sustainable, and scalable strategy to prepare nanoporous materials based on poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) is presented. The synthetic strategy relies on the radical polymerization of crosslinker-type ionic liquid (IL) monomers in the presence of an analogous IL, which acts as a porogenic solvent. This IL can be extracted easily after polymerization and recycled for further use. The great advantages of this synthetic approach are the atom-efficiency and lack of waste. The effects of different monomer/porogen ratios on the specific surface area, porosity, and pore size have been investigated. Finally, the potential of the materials as CO2 sorbents has been evaluated.
