A new class of polymers: Starburst-dendritic macromolecules
Donald A. Tomalia,H. Baker,James R Dewald,Michael B. Hall,G. Kallos,Steven J. Martin,J. Roeck,J. Ryder,Patrick B. Smith +8 more
TL;DR: Starburst polymers as mentioned in this paper are a class of topological macromolecules which are derived from classical monomers/oligomers by their extraordinary symmetry, high branching and maximized terminal functionality density.

Starburst Dendrimers: Molecular-Level Control of Size, Shape, Surface Chemistry, Topology, and Flexibility from Atoms to Macroscopic Matter
TL;DR: Starburst dendrimers are three-dimensional, highly ordered oligomeric and polymeric compounds formed by reiterative reaction sequences starting from smaller molecules—“initiator cores” such as ammonia or pentaerythritol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation of polymers with controlled molecular architecture. A new convergent approach to dendritic macromolecules
TL;DR: In this article, a convergent growth approach to topological macromolecules based on dendritic fragments is described, where polyether dendric fragments are prepared by starting from what will become the periphery of the molecule and progressing inward.
