Abstract Monodisperse polymer nanoparticles with reactive functional groups on the surface have contributed significantly to progress in a variety of fields of chemical, mechanical, biomedical, environmental and photoelectric applications. In this study, we prepared the monodisperse hyperbranched polyester nanoparticles which contain surface phenolic groups by one-pot surfactant-free polymerization. The size, shape and surface properties of the obtained polymer nanoparticles were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), FE-SEM, zeta potential and pH measurements. The functionalization of surface phenolic groups of the polymer nanoparticles was carried out by reaction with carboxylic acid-containing fluorescent dye molecules.
