Star polymers with star-like arms, namely dendrimer-like star-branched block copolymers, were synthesised by anionic polymerisation with 1,3-bis(1-phenylethenyl)benzene (MDDPE) and divinylbenzene (DVB) as the coupling agents. The segment sequence was controlled by changing the polymerisation sequences of different monomers and coupling reactions. Two types of dendrimer-like star-branched block copolymers were prepared with polyisoprene (PI) block incorporated in the interior part or on the periphery. The PI chains in the resulting star copolymers were iteratively grafted through epoxidation and grafting reactions, forming star-like dendrigraft copolymers. The molecular conformation of the products in dilute solution was analysed by static and dynamic light scattering. These products adopt large sized globular conformation in dilute solution. Atomic force microscopy shows that the star-like dendrigraft copolymers appear as collapsed spheres on mica substrate.
