Polymers

Polymers are a class of engineering materials that are widely used in a variety of applications due to their unique properties and versatility. A polymer is a large molecule made up of many smaller subunits, called monomers, that are chemically bonded together in a repeating pattern. These repeating patterns give polymers their unique mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. Polymers can be either natural or synthetic, and they are used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, medical, and electronics, among others. Common examples of polymers include plastics, rubbers, and fibers, each with their own unique properties and applications. The versatility and diversity of polymers make them an essential class of materials in modern engineering and manufacturing.

Elastomers

Elastomers
Elastomers are a class of materials that are defined by their ability to deform under stress and return to their original shape when the stress is removed. They are typically polymers with high molecular weight and high molecular flexibility, which enables them to exhibit rubber-like behavior. Elastomers have a wide range of physical and mechanical...
