Effect of Pendant Pyrene Groups on the Topology and Thermal Properties of Poly(Trimethylene Carbonate)

ABSTRACT Planar aromatic side chains offer a promising strategy for regulating polymer topology and segmental dynamics. Here, a pyrene‐substituted trimethylene carbonate (TMCM‐Py) was synthesized and polymerized by DBU‐catalyzed ring‐opening polymerization using benzyl alcohol as...
