Summary
Hyperbranched polyetherketones with opposing fluoro and hydroxy terminal groups have been synthesised from the corresponding AB2 monomers. The choice of A and B in these monomer units has been shown to be important and affects properties such as molecular weight, solubility, and glass transition temperature.
