Rheology of branched polybutadiene - modeling polydispersity

A series of linear and H-shaped polybutadienes (PBDs) were prepared by living anionic polymerization. These polymers were prepared in a novel way using a DPE derivative instead of a difunctional initiator to prepare the cross-bar. This new synthesis strategy was designed to reduce the presence of in...
