Abstract
Polyhydroxylated C60 derivative (fullerenol) was used as a molecular core in the design and synthesis of poly(urethane-ether) analog star-shaped polymers. Structure of these star-polymers were characterized to consist of 6 poly(urethane-ether) arms per C60, on average, in a remarkably narrow distribution of the number of arms per polymer molecule, when the reaction was performed under the described conditions. © 1995.
