Which Dendrimer to Attain the Desired Properties? Focus on Phosphorhydrazone Dendrimers

Among the six Critical Nanoscale Design Parameters (CNDPs) proposed by Prof. Donald A. Tomalia, this review illustrates the influence of the sixth one, which concerns the elemental composition, on the properties of dendrimers. After a large introduction that summarizes different types of dendrimers...
