    Glossary Polymers

    large molecules made of repeating monomer units

    Polymers are large molecules composed of repeating structural units called monomers, which are bonded together in long chains. They can be natural, like proteins and DNA, or synthetic, like plastics and nylon, and are essential in various applications due to their diverse properties, such as flexibility, strength, and resistance to chemicals.
