Catalysis in the synthesis of hyperbranched polyesters

An AB2 monomer, dimethyl 5-(2-hydroxyethoxy)isophthalate was prepared on a scale of 3kg. It was successfully polymerised in the melt and the influence of reaction conditions and catalysts was studied. Structural and physical characterisation of these materials was performed using variety of analytic...
