This review highlights the synthesis, properties and applications, as well as the potential, of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)-based complex macromolecular architectures (CMAs), a class of materials that has not received much attention in the literature. PVDF, the second in production fluoropolymer, is an attractive material due to its outstanding properties (high thermal stability and chemical inertness) along with its piezo-, pyro- and ferro-electrical performance. Even though only a small number of reports on PVDF-based CMAs have been published, a growing interest in the synthesis/properties of non-linear structures (graft, miktoarm star, star and dendrimers) has emerged due to their potential for application in areas such as drug/gene delivery, electronics and energy harvesting devices. The aim of this review is to present primary strategies for the synthesis of PVDF-based polymer materials with CMAs and critically discuss strategies and opportunities that may facilitate their commercialization. It can be anticipated that PVDF-based CMA polymers will play a progressively important role in materials science and nanotechnology, both in academia and industry.

这篇综述重点介绍了基于聚偏二氟乙烯（PVDF）的复杂大分子结构（CMA）的合成，性质和应用以及潜在的应用，这是一类在文献中并未受到太多关注的材料。PVDF是第二种含氟聚合物，由于其出色的性能（高热稳定性和化学惰性）以及其压电，热电和铁电性能，是一种有吸引力的材料。尽管仅发表了少量关于基于PVDF的CMA的报告，但由于它们在某些领域的应用潜力，人们对非线性结构（接枝，miktoarm星形，星形和树枝状大分子）的合成/性质越来越感兴趣。例如药物/基因传递，电子和能量收集设备。这篇综述的目的是提出利用CMA合成基于PVDF的聚合物材料的主要策略，并严格讨论可能促进其商业化的策略和机会。可以预料，基于PVDF的CMA聚合物将在学术界和工业界中的材料科学和纳米技术中扮演越来越重要的角色。
