Bimolecular non-linear polymerization, BMNLP (see Reaction Scheme 16.1), represents ‘the other method’ for preparation of hyperbranched polymers by the step-growth reaction mechanism. In contrast to the monomolecular polymerizations of ABx monomers, discussed for the two most prominent groups of silicon-containing hyperbranched polymers in Chapters 12 and 13, this polymerization type involves, as its name implies, two reactive monomers Ax and By, where A and B denote two types of mutually reactive functional groups while x and y are integers which must both be equal to or larger than 2, while one of them (either x or y) must be equal to or larger than 3 (see Section 16.3). Thus, the most common BMNLP systems include A2 + B3, A2 + B4, and A3 + B4 monomer combinations. General representation of the simplest of these, the A2 + B3 system in which the minor component has completely reacted, is shown in Reaction Scheme 16.1
