Several redox initiating chemicals such as Cu（III）/--CONH2, Ce（IV）/--CONH2 and Ce（IV）/--OH were chosen to increase the free radical generating rate, and the chain transfer agent （CTA） was used to reduce the molecular chain propagating rate, in order to obtain polymers with high degree of branching. Detailed analyses based on the molecular weight, α value and the degree of branching of polymers （DB） obtained from 1H-NMR spectra and multi detector size exclusion chromatography （MDSEC） suggested the acquiring of hyperbranced polyacrylamides with Cu（III）/--CONH2 and Ce（IV）/--CONH2 as initiator in the presence of the CTA. Meanwhile, the as-prepared poly（N-hydroxymethyl acrylamide） （PNHAM） with higher DB value （0.48） proved that using Ce（IV）/--OH as the initiator could increase the free radical generating rate and diminish the gap between the propagating rate and the initiation rate during the reaction procedure. In addition, the effect of oxidant concentration on the Mark-Houwink index （α） value and the DB was also studied.展开更多

The polymers are named according to the polymerization ratio of 4CzCNPy monomer （5 mol%, 10 mol% and 15 mol% for HBPs of P2-P4 respectively, and 0 mol% for the control linear polymer P1）. Their thermal, optoelectronic and electrochemical properties have been characterized by a combination of techniques. All the polymers exhibit high thermal stability with the decomposition temperatures （Ta） above 400 ℃ and glass transition temperatures （Tg） up to 98℃. Unfortunately, the incorporation of TADF moiety into these HBP materials induced non-TADF characteristics. However, when the HBPs functionalized as the host for our previously developed 4CzCNPy TADF dopant in solution processed devices, maximum external quantum efficiency of 5.7% and current efficiency of 17.9 cd/A have been achieved in P3-based device, which is significantly higher than those of 1.5% and 4.2 cd/A for the linear polymer P1.展开更多

The reactivity difference between the 13 group in linear unit and that in terminal group has great effect on the molecular parameters of the products obtained. The concentration of terminal units has a maximum with the increase of the conversion of A groups （x）. The higher the reactivity ratio （r） of linear B group to branched one is, the later the maximum appears and the larger it is. The degree of branching of the hyperbranched polymers obtained is controllable by adjusting the parameters of r and x, which increases with increasing both x and r.展开更多

The obtained acrylated hyperbranched polymers alone or with a monofunctional diluent, isobornylene acrylate(IBOA) were further cured by UV radiation. The cured films based on the modified polymers alone all demonstrated poor mechanical properties due to their high network densities and low moving ability of polymer chains. For the composite systems, the cured films demonstrated improved mechanical properties due to the low network densities and high chain moving ability. With more IBOA included in the systems, acrylate groups can react to a higher extent during the curing process.展开更多

In this work, two dendronized hyperbranched polymers, DttPG0 and DHPG1, were successfully pre- pared through the simple ＂A3＋B2＂ type Sonogashira coupling reaction. The nonlinear optical （NLO） effects of DHPG0 and DItPG1, characterized by the d33 values, were 183 and 220 pm V-1 respectively, higher than those of their analogues of den- dronized polymers and dendrimers, thanks to the special topological structure.

The hyperbranched polymers containing pseudo-stilbene type azo chromophores throughout the hyperbranched structure were synthesized by step-growth polycondensation of AB2 type monomers. The AB2 monomer, 4-（4＇-（bis（2-chloroethyl）amino）- phenylazo）benzoic acid （BAA）, was prepared through azo-coupling reaction between N,N＇-bis（2-chloroethyl）aniline and 4- aminobenzenic acid. The another AB2 monomer, 4-（4＇-（bis（2-chloroethyl）amino）phenylazo）-3-nitro-benzoic acid （BANA）, was prepared through azo-coupling reaction between N,N-bis（2-chloroethyl）aniline and 3-nitro-4-aminobenzenic acid. The hyperbranched polymers （PBAA and PBANA） were prepared through nucleophilic substitution reaction of BAA and BANA, respectively. The polymers synthesized were characterized by using spectroscopic methods and thermal analysis. The photoinduced dichroism and photo-induced surface-relief-grating （SRG） formation of the hyperbranched polymers were investigated upon irradiation with Ar＋ laser at 488 nm. PBAA shows typical photoinduced dichroism SRG formation behavior. On the contrary, PBANA does not show the photoresponsive properties. The results indicate that the nitro at the ortho position of azo group of PBANA shows the effect of inhibiting the photoinduced variations. The effect can be attributed to the blockage of the trans-cis isomerization of the azobenzene moieties by the steric hindrance.展开更多

The polymers possess low intrinsic viscosities and high thermal stabilities, losing little of their weights when heated to 〉 400℃. Upon pyrolysis at 〉 800℃, the polymers graphitize with high char yields （up to 86%）. Hyperbranched polyarylenes efficiently emit deep-blue to blue-green lights with fluorescence quantum yields up to 98% and strongly attenuate intense laser pulses with optical power-limiting performances superior to that of C60, a well-known optical limiter. Poly（alkenephenylenes）, poly（aroylarylenes） and polyynes are readily cross-linkable by UV irradiation, serving as excellent photoresist materials for the generation of patterns with nanometer resolution. Thin films of hyperbranched polyynes exhibit very high refractive indexes （n up to 1.86）. The internal and terminal acetylene moieties of the polyynes readily form complexes with cobalt carbonyls, which can be transformed into soft ferromagnetic ceramics with high magnetic susceptibilities （Ms up to ca. 118 emu/g） and near-zero magnetic losses.展开更多

文摘A series of amphiphilic hyperbranched polymers(AHP-s,the“s”refers to the algebra of AHP)were synthesized by the reaction between hydroxyl-terminated hyperbranched polymers(HBP-s,the“s”refers to the algebra of HBP)and palmitoyl chloride.FTIR,NMR and GPC were used to determine the structure of AHP-s,the results showed that AHP-s exhibits core-shell structure.The thermal properties of polymers were investigated by DSC and TGA.It was found that AHP-2,AHP-3 and AHP-4 display higher thermal stability than AHP-1(AHP-1,AHP-2,AHP-3 and AHP-4 represent the first,second,third and fourth generation AHP,respectively).Furthermore,the self-assembly performance of AHP-s in THF solvent was investigated by TEM and SEM.Finally,the encapsulation capacity of the AHP-s for methyl orange(MO)was explored at different concentrations of AHP-s and pH conditions.It was found that AHP-s is capable of accommodating hydrophilic vip MO.Moreover,the higher generation of AHP-s,the stronger encapsulation capacity obtained.And the encapsulation capacity closely associated with the pH of encapsulation system.

文摘This study develops the kinetics for the slow monomer addition technique in the synthesis of hyperbranched polymers.Taking the conversion of monomer(x)as a variable,we derived the analytic expressions of molecular size distribution function,average degree of polymerization,polydispersity index and degree of branching.These expressions are not only amenable to the polymerization with high monomer conversion,but also appropriate to describe the whole polymerization process.Comparison with the one-pot polymerization indicates that the slow monomer addition technique improves the molecular weight distribution and increases the degree of branching for the products obtained.

文摘The research on the supramolecular hyperbranched polymers(SHPs) that combines the advantages of supramolecular polymer and hyperbranched architecture has attracted considerable interests in many applications. Here we demonstrate a simple approach to prepare POSS-embedded supramolecular hyperbranched polymers(POSS-SHPs) with varied morphology and size by controlling monomer concentration and mixed solvents. The SHPs formations can further transfer into the core-shell structured micelles by addition of competitive vips based on the double supramolecular driving forces.

文摘Fluorescent hyperbranched polymers(FHBPs),which combine the versatile fluorescent property with unique characteristics of hyperbranched architecture,are desirable candidates for stimulus responsive materials.This review demonstrates the structure and environment-dependent emission behaviors of a series of FHBPs.AEE active FHBPs showing opposite performance to ACQ effect are used to sensitively detect explosives and a superamplification effect is found.Specially designed FHBPs can complex with metal ions,leading to fluorescence turn-off due to complex quenching effect.The protonation of amino-containing FHBPs exhibits pH-dependent fluorescence responses to solution acidity.Some FHBPs containing responsive moieties are photo-and thermo-sensitive,and show potential applications as smart materials.

文摘Dendronized hyperbranched polymer （DHP） is a new kind of polymer, which combines the advantages of dendrimers and hy- perbranched polymers. In this work, two dendronized hyperbranched polymers, DttPG0 and DHPG1, were successfully pre- pared through the simple ＂A3＋B2＂ type Sonogashira coupling reaction. The nonlinear optical （NLO） effects of DHPG0 and DItPG1, characterized by the d33 values, were 183 and 220 pm V-1 respectively, higher than those of their analogues of den- dronized polymers and dendrimers, thanks to the special topological structure. Also, the obtained polymers displayed excellent solubility, good processability, and high thermal stability.
文摘In this work, surface-relief-grating formation behavior was studied by using two hyperbranched azo polymers. The hyperbranched polymers containing pseudo-stilbene type azo chromophores throughout the hyperbranched structure were synthesized by step-growth polycondensation of AB2 type monomers. The AB2 monomer, 4-（4＇-（bis（2-chloroethyl）amino）- phenylazo）benzoic acid （BAA）, was prepared through azo-coupling reaction between N,N＇-bis（2-chloroethyl）aniline and 4- aminobenzenic acid. The another AB2 monomer, 4-（4＇-（bis（2-chloroethyl）amino）phenylazo）-3-nitro-benzoic acid （BANA）, was prepared through azo-coupling reaction between N,N-bis（2-chloroethyl）aniline and 3-nitro-4-aminobenzenic acid. The hyperbranched polymers （PBAA and PBANA） were prepared through nucleophilic substitution reaction of BAA and BANA, respectively. The polymers synthesized were characterized by using spectroscopic methods and thermal analysis. The photoinduced dichroism and photo-induced surface-relief-grating （SRG） formation of the hyperbranched polymers were investigated upon irradiation with Ar＋ laser at 488 nm. PBAA shows typical photoinduced dichroism SRG formation behavior. On the contrary, PBANA does not show the photoresponsive properties. The results indicate that the nitro at the ortho position of azo group of PBANA shows the effect of inhibiting the photoinduced variations. The effect can be attributed to the blockage of the trans-cis isomerization of the azobenzene moieties by the steric hindrance.

文摘Hyperbranched aromatic polymers were prepared by Friedel-Crafts reaction with Lewis acid, AlCl3 and ZnCl2, as the catalysts. In this work, hyperbranched polybenzyl (PB) and poly(methylene)naphthalene (PN) were synthesized and characterized by H-1-NMR and GPC. In addition, their florescence properties were measured with steady-state florescence spectra in THF and ethylene dichloride. The quantum yields of polybenzyl and poly(methylene)naphthalene in ethylene dichloride are much larger than those in THE.

文摘Functional hyperbranched polymers,as an important class of materials,are widely applied in diverse areas.Therefore,the development of simple and efficient reactions to prepare hyperbranched polymers is of great significance.In this work,trialdehydes,diamines,and trimethylsilyl cyanide could easily undergo multicomponent polymerization under mild conditions,producing hyperbranched poly(α-aminonitrile)s with high molecular weights(M_(w) up to 4.87×10^(4))in good yields(up to 85%).The hyperbranched poly(α-aminonitrile)s have good solubility in commonly used organic solvents,high thermal stability as well as morphological stability.Furthermore,due to the numerous aldehyde groups in their branched chains,these hb-poly(α-aminonitrile)s can undergo one-pot,two-step,four-component post-polymerization with high efficiency.This work not only confirms the efficiency of our established catalyst-free multicomponent polymerization of aldehydes,amines and trimethylsilyl cyanide,but also provides a versatile and powerful platform for the preparation of functional hyperbranched polymeric materials.

文摘Polycyclotrimerization and polycoupling of acetylenic monomers respectively furnish hyperbranched polyarylenes and polyynes with high molecular weights （up to 1 × 10^6） in high yields （up to 99.9%）. The polymers possess low intrinsic viscosities and high thermal stabilities, losing little of their weights when heated to 〉 400℃. Upon pyrolysis at 〉 800℃, the polymers graphitize with high char yields （up to 86%）. Hyperbranched polyarylenes efficiently emit deep-blue to blue-green lights with fluorescence quantum yields up to 98% and strongly attenuate intense laser pulses with optical power-limiting performances superior to that of C60, a well-known optical limiter. Poly（alkenephenylenes）, poly（aroylarylenes） and polyynes are readily cross-linkable by UV irradiation, serving as excellent photoresist materials for the generation of patterns with nanometer resolution. Thin films of hyperbranched polyynes exhibit very high refractive indexes （n up to 1.86）. The internal and terminal acetylene moieties of the polyynes readily form complexes with cobalt carbonyls, which can be transformed into soft ferromagnetic ceramics with high magnetic susceptibilities （Ms up to ca. 118 emu/g） and near-zero magnetic losses.
