✦ Synopsis


Abstract

This feature article highlights three types of hyperbranched fluoropolymers (HBFPs) with different structural features, which were synthesized by either polycondensation of fluorinated AB~x~ monomers or self‐condensing vinyl (co)polymerization of fluorinated inimers and/or fluorinated comonomers. Amphiphilic crosslinked networks with hybridization of these hydrophobic HBFPs and linear hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol)s are also discussed. As microphase‐segregated materials with nanoscale surface heterogeneities, these networks possessed unusual anti‐biofouling abilities, atypical sequestration and release behaviors for guest molecules, and special mechanical properties.
