It discusses in detail the synthesis strategies for these particular classes of polymers as well as biocompatible and biodegradable HBPs, which are of increasing interest to polymer technologists due to their immense potential in biomedical applications. The book also describes the one-pot synthesis technique for HBPs, which is feasible for large-scale production, as well as HBPs? structure-property relationship, which makes them superior to their linear counterparts.   The alterable functional groups present at the terminal ends of the branches make HBPs promising candidates in the biomedical domain, and the book specifically elaborates on the suitable characteristic properties of each of the potential biological HBPs? applications. As such, the book offers a valuable reference guide for all scientists and technologists who are interested in using these newly developed techniques to achieve faster and better treatments. 410 0$aSpringer Series on Polymer and Composite Materials,$x2364-1878 606 $aPolymers   606 $aNanochemistry 606 $aBiomedical engineering 606 $aPolymer Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C22008 606 $aNanochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C33000 606 $aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T2700X 615 0$aPolymers  . 615 0$aNanochemistry. 615 0$aBiomedical engineering. 615 14$aPolymer Sciences. 615 24$aNanochemistry. 615 24$aBiomedical Engineering and Bioengineering. 676 $a541.2254 700 $aBandyopadhyay$b Abhijit$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0767859 702 $aSengupta$b Srijoni$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aDas$b Tamalika$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298585903321 996 $aHyperbranched Polymers for Biomedical Applications$92537908 997 $aUNINA
