Organic Cyclic Polymers

  • Chapter
Cyclic Polymers

Conclusions

It has been shown that several alternative routes to organic cyclic polymers are now well established. However, the synthesis of ring polymers with MW > 100 000 has not been completely successful. This synthesis is a challenge at the edge of present day controlled macromolecular engineering. At this level there is a lack of synthetic precision, of good separation techniques and of sufficiently discriminating analytical methods. As a result, the dilute solution properties of ring polymers are not yet firmly established in the high MW limit that is of fundamental importance in polymer science. For the same reasons, the melt properties, especially diffusion and viscoelastic properties of ring polymers, are only marginally explored despite the importance of the ring polymer properties to the entanglement concept and reptation model. On the other hand, the study of Tg and the lamellar structure of truly monodisperse cycloalkanes are well advanced. As indicated in this review, it can be foreseen that new separation methods and new powerful analytical methods will most likely contribute to further advances in the study of organic ring polymers.
