Cyclic polymers present a topology that differ significantly from their linear counterparts due
to their circular structure and therefore, the lack of chain ends. These simple characteristics …

Multiblock copolymers exhibit interesting self-assembly behaviors owing to their repetitive
block structure. Incompatible chemical structures of each block enable unprecedented self …

The synthesis of cyclic polymers has made tremendous progress over the last decade.
However, upscaling remains a challenge. To achieve acceptable cyclization yields, time …

The steadily increasing interest in cyclic polymers has led to a plethora of proposed
applications, particularly as biomaterials. However, the large-scale synthesis of cyclic …

ABSTRACT Partially hydrolysed poly (2-oxazoline) s possess unique properties. However,
much of the focus in this area has been on water soluble poly (2-oxazoline) s. Where …

This thesis takes a step towards the efficient synthesis of cyclic polymers, which have
recently gained significant attention as potent materials in biomedical applications. Using …

Poly (2-oxazoline) s are a diverse polymer type that are synthesised via the cationic ring-
opening polymerisation of 2-oxazoline monomers. The diversity of this polymer class stems …

In the landscape of polymer chemistry, poly (2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) s (PAOXAs) have attracted
increasing interest due to their interesting properties in terms of biocompatibility, mechano …
