Hyperbranched Polymers

Beschreibung

A much-needed overview of the state of the art of hyperbranchedpolymers The last two decades have seen a surge of interest inhyperbranched polymers due to their ease of synthesis on a largescale and their promising applications in diverse fields, frommedicine to nanotechnology. Written by leading scientists in academia and industry, thisbook provides for the first time a comprehensive overview of thetopic, bringing together in one complete volume a wealth ofinformation previously available only in articles scattered acrossthe literature. Drawing on their work at the cutting edge of thisdynamic area of research, the authors cover everything readers needto know about hyperbranched polymers when designing highlyfunctional materials. Clear, thorough discussions include: * How irregular branching affects polymer properties and theirpotential applications * Important theoretical basics, plus a useful summary ofcharacterization techniques * How hyperbranched polymers compare with dendrimers as well aslinear polymers * Future trends in the synthesis and application of hyperbranchedpolymers Geared to novices and experts alike, HyperbranchedPolymers is a must-have resource for anyone working in polymerarchitectures, polymer engineering, and functional materials. It isalso useful for scientists in related fields who need a primer onthe synthesis, theory, and applications of hyperbranchedpolymers.
