A series of star-branched polyisobutylenes with varying arm molecular weights was synthesized using the 2-chloro-2,4,4-trimethylpentane/TiCl 4 /pyridine initiating system and divinylbenzene (DVB) as a core-forming comonomer (linking agent). The resulting star-branched polymers were characterized wit

Anionic polymerization techniques utilizing 1,2,4,5-tetra(bromomethyl)benzene as the linking agent were employed for the synthesis of four-arm star polymers with poly(tert-butyl methacrylate) (PtBuMA), poly(methyl methacrylate), poly(tert-butylacrylate) (PtBuA), or poly(2-vinylpyridine) (P2VP) branc
The synthesis and characterization of novel thermoplastic elastomers consisting of multiple polystyrene-b-polyisobutylene (PSt-b-PIB) arms emanating from cyclosiloxane cores is described. The synthesis involved the sequential living cationic block copolymerization of styrene (St) and isobutylene (IB
