The feasibihty of the Diels-Alder coupling was shown on the example of biodegradable polyester by Ninh and Bettinger [47]. In this case, hyperbranched poly(glycerol-co-sebacate) with pendant furan groups was coupled with a bifunctional maleimide cross-linker to produce an elastomeric material. POSS moieties may serve as cross-linking sites, as well. Ishida et al. [48] have shown how a...

Because of the high functionality of glycerol it is not surprising that a significant amount of research has focused on new polymeric materials that incorporate glycerol (Fig. 8.4). This includes polyesters, poly ethers, and polycarbonates (Ray and Grinstaff, 2003 Fu et al., 2003). In addition to the linear and network polymers, dendritic or hyperbranched structures have been investigated extensively (Malmstrom et al., 1995 Hawker et al., 1997 Jayaraman and Frechet, 1998 Bosnian et al., 1999 Sunder et al., 1999, 2000 ...
