HYDROLYSIS
The type of chemical reaction that connects polymers together is dehydration synthesis.
Amorphous polymers have randomly arranged molecular chains, making them flexible and transparent, while crystalline polymers have ordered molecular chains, making them rigid and opaque.
Dehydration reaction.

Monomers are the building blocks of large macromolecules, and when they are assembled together during a chemical reaction, they form polymers. Polymers are made up of repeating units of monomers linked together through covalent bonds.
Polymers are typically formed by condensation reactions, not hydrolysis. In a condensation reaction, monomers combine to form a polymer chain with the release of a small molecule like water. Hydrolysis, on the other hand, is the breakdown of polymers into monomers by the addition of water molecules.
Condensation
yes. that is one of the methods to form polymers.
A condensation reaction is a chemical reaction where man-made polymers are made. Condensation reaction is a reaction that links monomers with the release of water.
The chemical reaction that causes Gak to become a solid is a cross-linking process between the polymers in the Gak solution. When the polymers are exposed to air and allowed to dry, they form hydrogen bonds and create a network structure, transforming the Gak from a liquid to a solid state.
Monomers hook up to form polymers. There is a link below that will lead you to the Wikipedia post on polymers.Water is also produced, this is a condensation reaction.
