Abstract
Hyperbranched polymers (HPs), which in terms of structure may be compared to the branching structure of trees, are referred to as tree-like materials, but role of leave in these tree-like polymers is neglected and much attention has only been paid to their branches. In fact, functional groups in these polymers play a vital role the same as the role of leaves in trees. Therefore, in this paper, an attempt has been made to design and synthesize three AB2 monomers containing extra hydroxyl and nitro groups. The benefits of their presence in the structure of produced hyperbranched polyamides (HPs) are investigated. The polymer structure was characterized by FT-IR and 1 H NMR. The solubility of synthesized HPs was studied in different protic and aprotic solvents. The thermal stability of the prepared HPs was investigated by thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetric analyses. The photoluminescent properties of the HPs were also investigated.
期刊介绍:
Designed Monomers and Polymers ( DMP) publishes prompt peer-reviewed papers and short topical reviews on all areas of macromolecular design and applications. Emphasis is placed on the preparations of new monomers, including characterization and applications. Experiments should be presented in sufficient detail (including specific observations, precautionary notes, use of new materials, techniques, and their possible problems) that they could be reproduced by any researcher wishing to repeat the work.
The journal also includes macromolecular design of polymeric materials (such as polymeric biomaterials, biomedical polymers, etc.) with medical applications.
DMP provides an interface between organic and polymer chemistries and aims to bridge the gap between monomer synthesis and the design of new polymers. Submssions are invited in the areas including, but not limited to:
-macromolecular science, initiators, macroinitiators for macromolecular design
-kinetics, mechanism and modelling aspects of polymerization
-new methods of synthesis of known monomers
-new monomers (must show evidence for polymerization, e.g. polycondensation, sequential combination, oxidative coupling, radiation, plasma polymerization)
-functional prepolymers of various architectures such as hyperbranched polymers, telechelic polymers, macromonomers, or dendrimers
-new polymeric materials with biomedical applications
