What are Polymers? Understand Polymerization Reactions with Classification, Structure, Types, Properties and Uses of polymers. Learn to find the Molecular Mass of polymers with examples.
Polymers can be classified based on their origin as natural or synthesis. Other texts have classified polymers according to functions, source, polymerization mechanism, polymer structure, preparation techniques, and thermal behavior. This chapter provides information on a system of classifying natural ...

particle distributions of Co and Ni NPs ensure that the further reactivity comparisons are mainly based on the types of metal modification instead of acid/metal site intimacy during their working state (hydrogen atmosphere with heat, see below)41. The more aggregated particle distribution, on the ...
Monosaccharides are considered as fuel molecules that are involved in the formation of polymers like polysaccharides and nucleic acids. Monosaccharides are further divided into different groups based on various characteristics like the placement of the carbonyl group, the number of carbon atoms it contains...
On February 21, 2024, the National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (NITE) in Japan updated the classification list under the hazard general knowledge of chemicals based on the GHS - Labelling and Safety Data Sheet (SDS). Seven substances are invol
The upcycling of recycled plastics as secondary raw materials, reducing the use of virgin polymers, is still today an open challenge. The way of thinking about the life cycle of plastics, from product design to recycling, is currently focused on converting more and more waste into high-quality...
Let us start by describing some background information on protein structures. Proteins are complex polymers composed of a series of amino acids attached by peptide bonds. There are 20 different naturally occurring amino acids present in proteins, each with a different residual group, [R]: Sign in...
Differences are recognized in molecular weight, chemical nature of functional groups and of their core, which is organic in case of polymers and inorganic in case of nanomaterials. Moreover, in case of nanomaterials properties such as aspect ratio, geometry, and diameter could significantly alter ...
Copper-chalcogenide-based materials (nanosize and microsize) are another class of inorganic agents that can be used for photomedicine. The d-d transition of electrons results in an absorption band over 900 nm. Hu and co-workers first reported the synthesis of microsized flower-like CuS particle...
