What are cross-linked clusters?
Cross-linked clusters are clusters that are marked in the FAT or MFT as belonging to more than once file.
What is the importance of crosslinking and chains in polymers?
It affects the properties of a polymer by it being "combine" with sodium borate.
Why can't plastic be easily stretched?
Plastics have stronger bonds between the polymer chains-thesemight be covalent bonds between the chains, or cross-linking bridges. These plastics have a higher melting point, are rigid and can't be stretched, as the cross-links hold the chains firmly together.Hope i helped :-)
Classification of conducting polymers?
polymers are classified into 5 types as follows: A))based on synthesis: 1)addition polymers 2)condensation polymers B))based on inter molecular forces: 1)fibers 2)elastromers 3)thermoplastics 4)thermosettings C))from source 1)natural polymers 2)synthetic polymers D))based on material 1)organic polymer 2)inorganic polymer E))based on structure 1)linear polymer 2)branched polymer 3)cross linked polymer F))based on the monomer 1)homo polymer 2)hetero polymer
What substance is the absorbent pad in a diaper made of?
Hope this helps: The absorbent pad is made of two essential elements: water-loving polymer and fibrous material. Microscopically the polymer molecules resemble long chains or ropes. Parts of the chemical ropes are made to interact with water molecules. When a big number of these polymer chains are cross linked they form a gel network that can be modified. The gel strength is like polymer and has the tendency to misshape. If the strength of the gel is too high, the polymer will not hold enough water. If the gel strength is too low, the polymer will misshape too easily and the distant particles in the pad will absorb the liquid too fast, forming gel that blocks the liquid from getting to the center pad particles.
What is cross-linked?
covalent bonds between chains of molecules of a polymer or polymers, fastening the chains together. See also cross-linked polymer, under polymer.

What is difference between monocross and linked type monocross suspension?
Mono cross means the single suspension system also called as mono cross suspension . this is called as Mono cross.
What is link?
covalent bonds between chains of molecules of a polymer or polymers, fastening the chains together. See also cross-linked polymer, under polymer.
What is protein crosslinking?
This protein crosslinking consists of between primary amine (lysine) and sulfhydryl (cysteine) groups of proteinsand other molecules; which are available with different lengths and types of spacer arms.

What is sodium tetraborate better known as?
Sodium tetraborate is more commonly known as borax. It is often used as a cross-linking molecule between polymer chains, making the polymer more rigid.
What is the difference between a cross-linked cluster and a lost cluster?
Occasionally, the chain of entries in the FAT becomes corrupted, resulting either in lost clusters or cross-linked clusters. Crossed-linked means more than one chain points to them. Lost clusters or lost allocation units means no chain in the FAT points to them.
What is a process by which adjacent chains in a polymer joined together and strengthen the polymer?
Cross linking.
Why does Cross-links between polymer chains increase the melting point?
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.
