Abstract:
Described herein are associative polymers capable of controlling a physical and/or chemical property of non-polar compositions and related compositions, methods and systems. Associative polymers herein described have a non-polar backbone and functional groups presented at ends of the non-polar backbone, with a number of the functional groups presented at the ends of the non-polar backbone formed by associative functional groups capable of undergoing an associative interaction with another associative functional group with an association constant (k) such that the strength of each associative interaction is less than the strength of a covalent bond between atoms and in particular less than the strength of a covalent bond between backbone atoms.

Claim (Index 42):
The method of  claim 24 , wherein the at least one framing associative polymer is formed by at least two structure units having formula [[FG-chain\ue8a0-[node] z \ue8a0- (I) and optionally one or more structural units having formula -[\ue8a0node\ue8a0-\ue8a0chain\u2203]- (II), wherein:\n FG is an associative functional group (FGa); chain is a non-polar polymer substantially soluble in a non-polar composition, the polymer having formula:\n R 1 -[A] n -R 2 \u2003\u2003(III) \n wherein:\n A is a chemical and in particular an organic moiety forming the monomer of the polymer; \n R 1  and R 2  are independently selected from any carbon based or organic group with one of R 1  and R 2  linked to an FG or a node and the other one of R 1  and R 2  linked to an FG or a node; and \n n is an integer \u22651; \n z is 0 or 1; \n node is a covalently linked moiety linking one of R 1  and R 2  of at least one first chain with one of the R 1  and R 2  of at least one second chain; \n and wherein the FG, chain and node of different structural units of the polymer can be the same or different.
