Abstract
Hyperbranched organosilicon polymers (HBOSP), a new kind of functional semi-organic polymers are of great potential to be applied in catalyst carriers, ceramic precursors, electroluminescent polymers, heat-resistant elastomers, etc. In this paper, new methods in recent 10 years for syntheses of HBOSP from new monomers, including ABx monomer, A2-Bx or A2-B′ Bx-1 monomers pair and Bf-AB x monomers pair, are summarized. Particularly, the research progress on regulation of macromolecular weight and its distribution as well as degree of branching, are discussed. The emphasis is also put on their terminal functional modifications as well as corresponding applications. Finally, new research trends are reviewed based on the progress of HBOSP.
