polimeresek
Polimeresek is a general term used to refer to polymers in Hungarian. Polymers are large molecules, or macromolecules, composed of many repeating subunits. These subunits, called monomers, are linked together by covalent chemical bonds. The properties of a polymer are determined by the type of monomer units and the way they are arranged. Polymers can be found in both natural and synthetic forms. Natural polymers include important biological molecules such as DNA, proteins, and cellulose. Synthetic polymers, on the other hand, are created through chemical processes and are widely used in everyday materials like plastics, synthetic fibers, and adhesives. The study of polymers is known as polymer science or polymer chemistry. This field investigates the synthesis, structure, properties, and applications of polymeric materials. The diversity of monomers and polymerization techniques allows for the creation of polymers with a vast range of characteristics, from flexible elastomers to rigid plastics and strong fibers.
