CATION COMPLEXES BETWEEN CATION GUESTS AND POLYMER HOSTS THAT CONTAIN CYCLIC ETHER UNITS

摘要

Complex compositions that comprise a cation guest and a polymer host are provided. The polymer host contains one or more cation-complexing segments that contain hetero atoms in a polydentate complexing array. At least two of the hetero atoms in the cation complexing segment comprise a cyclic ether selected from tetrahydrofuran 2,5-diyl units and tetrahydropyran 2,6-diyl units.
