Advanced Polymer Science won the case.
A polymer is build out of its monomers.
simple polymer are define as themosofning plastic where as long chain polymer define as thermosetting plastic
Polymer-polymer interactions refer to the attractive or repulsive forces that occur between different polymer chains. These interactions can influence the physical properties of the polymers, such as their solubility, mechanical strength, and thermal stability. Understanding and controlling polymer-polymer interactions is important for designing new materials with specific properties.
covalent bonds between chains of molecules of a polymer or polymers, fastening the chains together. See also cross-linked polymer, under polymer.
Ha Ha Ha actually we can't differentiate between plastic and polymer because plastic itself is made of polymer.
The polymer must form bonds with the object if it is to stick to it. If the number of bonds between the polymer chains increases, the number of bonds they share with other objects will probably decrease, making it less sticky.
Cross-linking a polymer like polyvinyl alcohol or rubber creates covalent bonds between individual polymer chains, which enhances the material's mechanical strength, elasticity, and thermal stability. This process restricts the movement of polymer chains, resulting in a more rigid and durable structure compared to the unlinked form. To illustrate these relationships in a diagram, you could depict a monomer as a single unit, show it joining to form a polymer (a long chain of repeating units), and then represent cross-linking by drawing connections between different polymer chains to highlight the network structure of the cross-linked polymer.
mild steel is metallic bonding and polymer is covalent bond
The main difference between alkyd resins and alkyd polymers is the chain length. Most of the time Polymer is large and resins are small. However this is not always the case sometimes it can be a little as the color difference.
The annealing temperature is the temperature at which a polymer is heated to relieve internal stresses and improve its properties, without melting it. The melting temperature is the temperature at which a polymer transitions from a solid to a liquid state. In polymer processing, annealing temperature is used to improve the polymer's structure, while melting temperature is when the polymer becomes a liquid for shaping.
The bond between carbon and fluorine in the polymer Teflon is a covalent bond. This type of bond involves the sharing of electrons between the atoms to form a stable molecule.
Cross-links usually occur when a polymer molecule is at a larger size. A larger sized molecule is held together by stronger covalent bonds, and henceforth the force between the molecules is stronger. As the force between the molecules gets stronger, more energy is needed to separate them, meaning the melting point increases.
