Abstract

In the paper cyclodextrin-based (CD) polyrotaxanes are presented in the aspect of their syntheses and properties allowing various applications. The text consists of four parts, which describe CD-based polyrotaxanes with threads containing poly(ethylene oxide), poly (4,4′-diphenylenevinylene), polyfluorene and other chains. Conclusion shows new trends connected with this theme.
