Abstract

This review introduces the kinetic theory of self-condensing vinyl polymerization (SCVP), including the SCVP of AB* inimers, the SCVP with non-equal reactivity between A* and B* groups, the SCVP in the presence of a small amount of multifunctional initiators, also the SCVP of both inimers and comonomers. The analytical expressions of various molecular parameters for the resulting hyperbranched polymers, such as the molecular size distribution function, the average molecular weight, the polydispersity index and the degree of branching, are reviewed systematically.
