In 2004, a research led by Prof. Budd and Prof. Neil McKeown first published a paper on Polymers of intrinsic microporosity, also commonly known as PIMs.[9] One of the major polymers currently in the world, it is used in several applications including adsorption of organic vapours, adsorption of organic molecules from solutions, hydrogen storage and as solid state adsorbents for waste water treatment.[10][11][12][13] Several research have now been published on this unique type of polymer, including by Prof. Budd and several researchers across the globe, and it has been also used in the determination of the Robenson Plot in Membrane gas separation.[14]
A wide range of literature has been published by Prof. Budd on the synthesis, structural, property and application analysis of PIMs as well as other polymers and membranes. The published work by Prof. Budd has received more than 17,000 citations as of June 2022.[5]
