英文摘要：

Molecular design and controllable preparation of hyperbranched polymers are of great significance for their industrialized application, which depends on the understanding for their formation mechanism. At the end of 1980＇s, Kim et al. successfully prepared hyperbranched polyphenylenes. Since then, the hyperbranched polymers have been a hot topic in polymer science and great progress has been made in both experiments and theory. The topological structure and molecular parameters can be estimated by the theory of hyperbranched polymers, which provided a great help to the molecular design and controllable preparation of hyperbranched polymers. Among the various theoretical models, kinetics of hyperbranched polymerization is the most perfect due to the clear principle and rigorous derivation, by which the analytical expressions of the molecular weight distribution functions and the various molecular parameters of the products can be derived. It is one of highlights of scientists working in China. The polymerization of ABg type monomer is one of the most important technologies to prepare the hyperbranched polymers. However, the molecular weight distribution is extremely wide for the products of the polycondensation with pure ABg type monomer. The presence of a little of multifunctional group can narrow the molecular weight distribution. Moreover, the polydispersity of hyperbranched polymers obtained can drastically decrease when the monomers are slowly added to the reaction system. Another deficiency of the hyperbranched polymers resulted from the polycondensation with pure ABg type monomer is the poor mechanical properties. One of the improved approaches is the copolymerization of AB and ABg monomers, in which some linear segments can be incorporated into the hyperbranched polymer obtained. Thus, the degree of branching and the mechanical properties of the polymer can be designed by suitable monomer feed ratio. Taking account of the substitution effect, various degree of branching of the products also can be unders
