Project description

The aim of this work is to synthesize and evaluate hyperbranched polymers via new routes by making use of the versatile and metal-free thiol-yne click reaction and the controlled radical polymerization technique RAFT (Reversible Addition-Fragmentation chain Transfer). For the synthesis of the hyperbranched polymers, thiol-yne click chemistry is used based on AB2 oligomers, which are synthesized via two strategies.
