Fluorescent hyperbranched polymers (FHBPs),which combine the versatile fluorescent property with unique characteristics of hyperbranched architecture,are desirable candidates for stimulus responsive materials.This review demonstrates the structure and environment-dependent emission behaviors of a series of FHBPs.AEE active FHBPs showing opposite performance to ACQ effect are used to sensitively detect explosives and a superamplification effect is found.Specially designed FHBPs can complex with metal ions,leading to fluorescence turn-off due to complex quenching effect.The protonation of amino-containing FHBPs exhibits pH-dependent fluorescence responses to solution acidity.Some FHBPs containing responsive moieties are photo-and thermo-sensitive,and show potential applications as smart materials.
