Polymer | Journal | ScienceDirect. com by Elsevier Polymer is an interdisciplinary journal dedicated to publishing innovative and significant advances in Polymer Physics, Chemistry, and Technology We welcome submissions on polymer chemistry, polymer physics, polymer hybrids, nanocomposites, characterisation and self-assembly
Polymer | Description, Examples, Types, Material, Uses, Facts . . . A polymer is any of a class of natural or synthetic substances composed of very large molecules, called macromolecules, which are multiples of simpler chemical units called monomers Polymers make up many of the materials in living organisms and are the basis of many minerals and man-made materials
What Is a Polymer? - ThoughtCo Polymerization is the process of creating synthetic polymers by combining small monomer molecules into chains held together by covalent bonds The two major forms of polymerization are step-growth polymerization and chain-growth polymerization
Polymers 101: What Are Polymers?, Classes, Types, and Common Examples A polymer is a term used for large chemical compounds with several subunits These subunits are also known as monomers, and they are linked to each other in long recurring chains Sometimes, too, polymers may be made up of one type of monomer or different kinds
Introduction to Polymers - Carnegie Mellon University Many of the same units (or mers) are connected together to form a long chain or polymer Because they can be extremely large, often made up of hundreds of thousands of atoms, polymers are also referred to as macromolecules
What is a Polymer? | MATSE 81: Materials In Todays World A commonly used definition of polymer is a material that is composed of many monomers (from 10s to 1000s) all linked together to form chains A monomer can be composed of one to many atoms which form the base unit which is repeated to form a polymer, as represented in the figure below
What are Polymers? (with picture) - AllTheScience Polymers are molecules that consist of a long, repeating chain of smaller units called monomers They have the highest molecular weight among any molecules, and may consist of billions of atoms Human DNA is a polymer with over 20 billion constituent atoms Proteins, made up of amino acids, and many other molecules that make up life are polymers
Polymer - Biology Simple Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units They are essential in our everyday lives There are two main types of polymers: natural and synthetic Both types play key roles in different industries and applications Natural polymers are found in nature
