Abstract

See full text

Bridged dense star polymers having terminal group densities greater than conventional extended star polymers exhibit greater and more uniform reactivity than their corresponding conventional star polymers. For example, a third generation, hydroxy-terminated polyether dense star polymer can be prepared from pentaerythrityltetrabromide and 4-hydroxymethyl-2,6,7-trioxabicyclo[2.2.2]-octane which has a molecular volume less than 80 percent of the volume of a conventional extended star polymer made from similar materials. This dense star polymer can then be bridged by reacting it with a suitable difunctional reactant such as toluene diisocyanate. Such polymers of dense star polymers are useful as demulsifiers for oil/water emulsions, wet strength agents in the manufacture of paper, proton scavengers, calibration standards for electron microscopy, and agents for modifying viscosity in aqueous formulations such as paints.
