A series of hyperbranched polycarbosilanes were synthesized and coated on the inner surface of fused-silica capillaries by chemical bonding. The end groups of the hyperbranched polycarbosilanes were modified with b-cyclodextrin derivatives. The chiral isomers of ofloxacin and chlorpheniramine were separated by this new type of chiral capillary electrophoresis column and high-column efficiency was achieved. The results showed that ofloxacin was completely separated at pH 3.0; the separation resolution was 2.32, and theoretical plates were greater than 4.5 Â 10 4 plates m À1 .
A series of hyperbranched polyesteramides (S1, S2, S3) with trimethylolpropane as a core molecule were synthesized using core-dilution/slow monomer addition strategy. The products were characterized by FTIR,
13C NMR, GPC, TGA, hydroxyl value measurement, and viscosity measurement. The result showed that the hyperbranched polyester-amides synthesized had narrow molecular weight distribution and high degree of branching (DB). The hyperbranched polyesteramides synthesized were used as crosslinkers for polyurethane curing systems and the mechanical properties of the polyurethane curing systems were investigated. It was found that the best tensile property and tear strength were obtained when the S2 were used as crosslinkers and the molar ratio of AOH and ANCO was 1 : 1. It was also found that the polyurethane curing systems had the highest hardness and T g when the S3 were used as crosslinkers. V C 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
