polimerike
Polimerike refers to materials and systems composed of polymers, large molecules made by linking many repeating units called monomers. Polymers can be natural, such as cellulose and proteins, or synthetic, such as polyethylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride. The central characteristic is a macromolecular chain architecture with high molecular weight and covalent bonds linking units, which imparts unique mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties.
Polimerike are classified by origin (natural vs synthetic), by synthesis mechanism (addition/chain-growth vs condensation/step-growth), and by
Properties vary with composition and structure. Molecular weight, tacticity, crystallinity, and branching influence strength, toughness, melting
Environmental considerations include recycling challenges, plastic pollution, and the trade-offs of biodegradability versus performance. Life-cycle assessment
