Abstract

The preparation of highly branched multiarm star polymers with a narrow polydispersity has been an active area in polymer science as these materials provide quick access to globular macromolecules that bear some crude resemblance to the more structurally perfect dendrimers. Although syntheses of dendrimers have been well documented, it is only recently that techniques have been put forth to prepare well-defined star polymers without ...
