Addition polymer
An addition polymer is a polymer that forms by simple linking of monomers without the co-generation of other products.
New!!: Repeat unit and Addition polymer · See more »
Atom
An atom is the smallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that has the properties of a chemical element.
New!!: Repeat unit and Atom · See more »
Atomic mass
The atomic mass (ma) is the mass of an atom.

Comonomer
In polymer chemistry, a comonomer refers a polymerizable precursor to a copolymer aside from the principal monomer.
New!!: Repeat unit and Comonomer · See more »
Condensation polymer
Condensation polymers are any kind of polymers formed through a condensation reaction—where molecules join together—losing small molecules as byproducts such as water or methanol.
New!!: Repeat unit and Condensation polymer · See more »
Condensation reaction
A condensation reaction is a class of an organic addition reaction that proceeds in a step-wise fashion to produce the addition product, usually in equilibrium, and a water molecule (hence named condensation).

Copolymer
When two or more different monomers unite together to polymerize, the product is called a copolymer and the process is called copolymerization.

Degree of polymerization
The degree of polymerization, or DP, is the number of monomeric units in a macromolecule or polymer or oligomer molecule.

Molar mass distribution
In linear polymers the individual polymer chains rarely have exactly the same degree of polymerization and molar mass, and there is always a distribution around an average value.

Monomer
A monomer (mono-, "one" + -mer, "part") is a molecule that "can undergo polymerization thereby contributing constitutional units to the essential structure of a macromolecule".

Polyethylene terephthalate
Polyethylene terephthalate (sometimes written poly(ethylene terephthalate)), commonly abbreviated PET, PETE, or the obsolete PETP or PET-P, is the most common thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family and is used in fibres for clothing, containers for liquids and foods, thermoforming for manufacturing, and in combination with glass fibre for engineering resins.
