Hyperbranched polymers possess unique characteristics such as low viscosity, high solubility in organic solvents and a high degree of functionality at the terminal position.

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 ...

Hyperbranched polymer scaffolds, like enzymes, are capable of positioning catalysts and reagents, and modulating local chemistry in precise ways.

Hyperbranched polymers, like enzymes, are capable of positioning catalysts and reagents, and modulating local chemistry in precise ways.

Polymeric biomaterials, degradablepolymers, hyperbranched polymers, photopolymerization, expanding monomers Polymers used in biomedical materials applications take many different forms and functions.

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

Hyperbranched polymers are like the mutant offspring of dendrimers and linear polymers. These macromolecules branch like dendrimers, but the process of making them leads to a distribution of products.

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.

UP scientists created thermoresponsive polymers that promise astounding biomedical applications, such as drug delivery.

Hyperbranched polymers resemble dendrimers in many physical properties, such as high solubility, low solution viscosity and absence of entanglement. 40 The reduced viscosity of the hyperbranched ...
