polymer
A polymer is a large molecule made up of repeating units called monomers. Monomers are smaller molecules that link together through chemical bonds to form the polymer chain. The structure and properties of the polymer are determined by the type and arrangement of the monomer units used in its synthesis.
Polymer
The smallest unit of a polymer is called a monomer. Monomers are the repeating units that link together to form a polymer chain through chemical bonds.
A polymer. Polymers are formed from the repetition of monomer units through chemical bonding to create long chains or networks.
