After general introduction for hyperbranched polymers, hyperbranched polysiloxysilanes (HBPS) were introduced as new functional polymers. Vinyl terminated HBPS was synthesized starting from AB2 type monomer by hydrosilylation reaction. Vinyl group can be converted various functional groups such as carboxylic acid and alcohol. HBPS had strong interaction to inorganic surface. As an example of this phenomenon, silica gel bead for HPLC was modified with thermo sensitive polymers. The resulting bead was successfully applied to Green Chronatography.

Hyperbranched poly(ether sulfone) analogs with the 1,3,5-s-triazine moiety were prepared by the direct polymerization of AB$_2$type monomer, 2,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-6-(4-(4-(4-fluorobenzenesulfonyl)phenoxy)phenyl)-1,3,5-s-triazine (3). The selective reactivity of three chlorine atoms on cyanuric chloride toward nucleophiles provides an efficient route for the systematic synthesis of AB$_2$type triazine monomers and their hyperbranched polymers. The triazine rings influenced the structural and material characteristics of these hyperbranched polymers. The hyperbranched poly(ether sulfone) analog4 showed a glass transition at 295$^{\circ}C$. and was soluble in THF, 1,4-dioxane, and DMSO. An excellent thermal stability of polymer 4 was exhibited by a TGA analysis, which showed that 5% weight loss occurred at 480$^{\circ}C$.

Hyperbranched conjugated polymers (p-HPPV and m-HPPV) with para and meta linkages were synthesized from $A_2$ and $B_4$ type monomers through Wittig polycondensation. The synthesized p-HPPV and m-HPPV were completely soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dichloroethane, etc. and thermal gravimetric analyses showed that p-HPPV and m-HPPV are stable up to $350^{\circ}C$. The molecular weights (from GPC), UV-visible, and photoluminescence maximum peaks of p-HPPV and m-HPPV are characterized in detail. The fabricated EL devices using the synthesized hyperbranched polymers, (ITO/(p-HPPV or m-HPPV)/Al), showed EL emission at about 507 nm and 481 nm (681 nm), respectively. Especially, EL device from m-HPPV were found to exhibit nearly white emission with approximate CIE coordinates of (0.31, 0.34) compared with (0.310, 0.316) of NTSC white color at $100\;cd/m^2$. The good photophysical properties combine with good film-form ability could make these hyperbranched polymers to be a potential candidate for the EL materials.

A novel class of hyperbranched polyesters, HPpEP and HPmEP, were prepared via a facile one-pot polymerization of a phloroglucinol (as a $B_3$ monomer) with a phthaloyl dichloride (as an $A_2$ monomer) for replacing a problematic BPA developer in thermal printing system. The resulting polymers, HPpEP and HPmEP, had highly branched structures and met well the requirements for high performance developer materials such as colorlessness, easy and inexpensive synthesis, high thermal stability, etc. In addition, these polymers exhibited an efficient reaction with leuco dyes (ODB-2) for a coloring process by releasing protons from linear and terminal phenol groups of polymers when heated.

The hydroxy terminated aliphatic hyperbranched polyesters having different generations were synthesized by using melt polycondensation procedure. Then, the terminal groups of hyperbranched polyesters were modified by using acryloyl chloride and characterized by $\^{1}H$-NMR and GPC techniques. As a result of the modification of terminal groups for hyperbranched polyesters, the phase of the polymers were changed from sticky solid to high viscous liquid indicating that the glass transition temperatures of modified hyperbranched polyesters were lower than the original one. The thermal stabilities of hydroxy terminated hyperbranched polyesters were higher than those of terminal group-modified polymers.

Dendritic carbosilanes based on hyperbranched polycarbosilanes as core molecule have been prepared The core molecules were obtained by the use of hydrosilation of $HSiMe_{3-n}$$(CH_2CH=CH_2)_n$(n=2; $AB_2$,3;$AB_3$type). The hyperbranched core $AB_2\;and\; AB_3$ type polymers were generated to higher molecular dendritic carbosilanes Gn+1 by the use of hydrosilation and alkenylation sequence. The Gn+2P generations were not obtained as unified molecules by the use of hydrosilation with $HSiMeCl_2$. Gn and Gn+1 type polymers were produced to polysilol by the reaction of 9-BBN and alkali medium oxidation of hydroborated compounds. The degree for reaction has been controlled by the NMR spectroscopy.

While aromatic polyimides and polyamides have found widespread use as high performance polymers, the present work addressed the need for organosoluble materials through the use of a hyperbranching scheme. The $AB_2$ monomers were prepared. The $AB_2$ monomers were then polymerized via aromatic fluoride-displacement and Yamazaki reactions to afford the corresponding hydroxyl-terminated hyperbranched polyimides (HT-PAEKI) and amine-terminated hyperbranched polyamides, respectively. HT-FAEKI was then functionalized with allyl and propargyl bromides as well as epichlorohydrin to afford allyl-terminated AT-PAEKI, propargyl-terminated PT-PAEKI, and epoxy (glycidyl)-terminated ET-PAEKI, in that order. All hyperbranched poly(ether-ketone-imide)s were soluble in common organic solvents. AT-PAEKI was blended with a bisphenol-A-based bismaleimide (BFA-BMI) in various weight ratios. Thermal, rheological, and mechanical properties of these blend systems were evaluated. Two characteristic hyperbranched polyamides, which the one has para-electron donating groups to the surface amine groups and the other has para-electron withdrawing groups to the surface amine groups, were selected to compare BMI curing behaviors. The electron rich polymer displayed ordinary Michael addition type exothermic reaction, while electron deficient polymer did display unusual curing behaviors. Based on analytical data, the later system provided the strong evidences to support room temperature curing of BMI by reactive intermediates instead of reactive primary amine groups on the macromolecule surface.

A superior electrophilic substitution reaction medium that is non-toxic, relatively less corrosive, and non-volatile electrophilic substitution reaction to afford high molecular weight linear and hyperbranched polyetherketones (PEK' s) was developed. The system has very strong driving force to give extra ordinary high molecular weight linear and hyperbranched PEK' s. The reaction medium was further extended to prepare various types of copolymers and covalently grafted polymers onto carbon nanotube (CNT) or carbon nanofiber (CNF). By using characteristic hydrophilic nature of the reaction medium, hyperbranched PEK' s could be synthesized from commercially available $A_3\;+\;B_2$ monomers without network formation via selective solubility of the monomers.

The synthesis of materials with controlled composition and architectures continues to be a focus of considerable current research. Dendritic multiarm polymers such as dendrimer, hyperbranched polymer, and star polymers are three dimensional macromolecules, in which a large number of linear arms of similar molecular weight and narrow molecular weight distribution emanate from a central core.
