Rheological and thermal degradation properties of hyperbranched polyisoprene prepared by anionic polymerization

Hyperbranched polyisoprene was prepared by anionic copolymerization under high vacuum condition. Size exclusion chromatography was used to characterize the molecular weight and branching nature of these polymers. The characterization by differential scanning calorimetry and melt rheology indicated l...
