Used individually or combinatorially , unique isocyanate‐based dendritic monomers generate homo‐ and heterofunctional materials (the sketch shows schematically a molecule with a heterofunctional surface). Tier construction by combinatorial monomer addition offers new avenues to macromolecular architectural design and the control of physical properties.
