Hyperbranched polymers – tree-like molecules – are not particularly useful for the creation of plastic films and molded parts because they don't entangle. So Virginia Tech researchers have ...

In this study, the properties of a hyperbranched polymer of a vegetable oil with unique structural features were investigated.

A hyperbranched polymer (HBP) was prepared by the condensation polymerization of 4-hydroxymethylphenyldiphenylamine (TPA–CH 2 OH) and was compared with the ...

This article discusses what hyperbranched polymers are and how they have been used to develop drug delivery systems.

Controlled radical polymerization is a means of manufacturing highly branched three-dimensional macromolecules known as hyperbranched polymers.

Synthesis and structure of hyperbranched polylysine nanopolymers Hyperbranched polymers (HP) are macromolecules that are highly branched and characterized by irregular structure and branching.

(Nanowerk News) Materials science and the pharmaceutical industry could soon be revolutionized by emerging nanotechnologies based on designer molecules with long complex tree-and branch structures.
