Abstract: Abstract A series of three types of oligomers—oligo(butylene oxide)m-block-oligo(ethylene oxide)n-block-oligo(butylene oxide)m oligomers (EBs), glycerol-oligo(ethylene oxide)m-block-(butylene oxide)n oligomers (GEBs), and pentaerythritol-oligo(ethylene oxide)m-block-(butylene oxide)n oligomers (PEBs)—having different branch structures were synthesized. EBs, GEBs, and PEBs had linear,… read more here.
