Frequent　oil　spills　cause　substantial　economic　losses　and　pose　a　significant　threat　to　human　life.　Urgent　measures　must　be　taken　to　develop　a　highly　effective　approach　to　mitigating　oil　spills　and　minimizing　their　potential　consequences.　Herein,　we　synthesized　MS@COFs-F,　fluorinated　covalent　organic　framework-decorated　superhydrophobic　sponges,　to　clean　up　crude　oil　spills　efficiently.　The　synthesis　method　involved　a　simple　and　effective　room-temperature　approach,　utilizing　2,4,6-tris(4-aminophenyl)-1,3,5-triazine　(TAPT)　as　the　amine　monomer　and　binding　it　with　three　aldehyde　monomers　of　varying　fluoride　content.　The　MS@COFs-F　with　the　highest　fluorine　content,　known　as　MS@COFs-F4,　exhibited　low　surface　energy,　superhydrophobicity　(water　contact　angle　of　155.7°),　a　large　specific　surface　area　of　180　m2/g,　and　exceptional　chemical,　mechanical,　and　thermal　stability.　MS@COFs-F4　demonstrated　remarkable　effectiveness　in　adsorbing　crude　oils　and　organic　solvents　of　diverse　viscosities,　exhibiting　an　adsorption　capacity　between　68.5　and　125.9　g/g,　achieving　an　oil–water　separation　efficiency　exceeding　97.0　%.　Additionally,　MS@COFs-F4　showcased　self-cleaning　and　flame-retardant　properties,　further　enhancing　its　suitability　for　real-world　applications.　MS@COFs-F4　holds　the　potential　to　offer　a　novel,　safe,　and　effective　approach　in　addressing　oil　spill　incidents.　©　2024　Elsevier　B.V.
