High-performance cross-linked polymeric materials are now prepared from preformed precursors typical by distributions of molecular weights, number and reactivities of functional groups, and specific architectures. This makes theoretical treatment of networks evolution and their final structure difficult. This paper describes kinetically controlled cross-linking of a precursor formed from polyfunctional cores by arm extension by which molecular weight distribution develops and new groups of different reactivity are formed.
