- A naturally occurring or synthetic compound consisting of large molecules made up of a linked series of repeated simple monomers
- (polymeric) of or relating to or consisting of a polymer; "a polymeric compound"
- (polymerization) a chemical process that combines several monomers to form a polymer or polymeric compound
- A polymer is a large molecule (macromolecule) composed of repeating structural units typically connected by covalent chemical bonds. While polymer in popular usage suggests plastic, the term actually refers to a large class of natural and synthetic materials with a wide variety of properties.
- (Polymerization (card)) The following is a list of notable cards that are well famed in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game. The cards listed are notable for their relevance to the anime and manga of the same name, its two spin-off series, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX and Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's, and the real-life card game.
- A long or larger molecule consisting of a chain or network of many repeating units, formed by chemically bonding together many identical or similar small molecules called monomers. ...
- (Polymeric) Molecules with high dimension that are constituted by repeat units (monomers).
- (Polymerization) The composition of long chains of molecules called polymers from shorter chains called monomers. A photopolymer hardens when exposed to ultraviolet light. Printing inks also dry by polymerizing.
- (POLYMERIZATION) A chemical reaction in which two or more small molecules combine to form larger molecules that contain repeating structural units of the original molecules. A hazardous polymerization is the above reaction with an uncontrolled release of energy.
