“…Using RAFT polymerization, copolymers with predictable molecular weights, narrow molecular weight distributions, and different molecular architectures, i.e. , linear, 36,37 star, 38,39 and hyperbranched 40,41 copolymers, can be synthesized, whose properties in solution may be affected by temperature 42 and pH changes. A typical example of a thermoresponsive hyperbranched copolymer was reported by the Davis group.…”
