Abstract

Features of ionic ring-opening polymerization for preparing star-shaped polymers are considered. The possibilities of controlled synthesis of star-shaped structures using cyclic monomers of various classes are demonstrated. Data on the preparation of star polymers using the approaches of “grafting from” a multifunctional initiator, “grafting through” a macromonomer, and “grafting to” a multifunctional coupling agent are systematized and summarized.
