This talk presents our recent synthesis of hyperbranched polymers with uniform structure and multiple functionalities using one-pot chain-growth CuAAC polymerization of AB<sub>2</sub> monomers. Sequential addition of monomers with various compositions in the one-pot synthesis produced hyperbranched polymers with spherical shape and segmented structure. When hydrophilic monomers that contained water-soluble groups were added in the last step, the produced hyperbranched polymers showed thermo-responsiveness with sharp size transition and flexible tunability of the lower critical solution temperature (LCST).
