Monomer in a sentence

An example of alkene polymerization, in which each styrene monomer's double bond reforms as a single bond plus a bond to another styrene monomer.

It is sometimes important to ascertain the absence of unreacted vinyl monomer in the final product when the monomer is toxic or reduces the performance of the plastic.

The hexamer is far more stable than the monomer, which is desirable for practical reasons; however, the monomer is a much faster-reacting drug because diffusion rate is inversely related to particle size.

It assumes that every monomer of the polymer is an elastic spring.

Major products include PE, Styrene Monomer, and PC, which are materials found in basically every segment on earth.

In July, Shintech Louisiana LLC announced it would invest $1.49 billion at the plant to develop a new chlor alkali and vinyl chloride monomer production facility and expand an existing polyvinyl chloride manufacturing facility.

Chloroprene is related but it is a synthetic monomer.

During the polymerization process, some chemical groups may be lost from each monomer.

Fatty acids are considered the monomer in that case, and may be saturated (no double bonds in the carbon chain) or unsaturated (one or more double bonds in the carbon chain).

In all these cases and is thus not pliable, a hydrogen atom and a hydroxyl (-OH) group are lost to form H 2 O, and an oxygen atom links each monomer unit.

In general only the initiation step differs from that of the ordinary thermal polymerization of the same monomer; subsequent propagation, termination and chain transfer steps are unchanged.

In general, polymers such as PVC are referred to as "homopolymers," as they consist of repeated long chains or structures of the same monomer unit, whereas polymers that consist of more than one molecule are referred to as copolymers (or co-polymers).

In this scenario, intermolecular forces between the solvent and monomer subunits dominate over intramolecular interactions.

It is composed of one constant and one variable domain from each heavy and light chain of the antibody. citation The paratope is shaped at the amino terminal end of the antibody monomer by the variable domains from the heavy and light chains.

Microstructure main The microstructure of a polymer (sometimes called configuration) relates to the physical arrangement of monomer residues along the backbone of the chain.

Monomer arrangement in copolymers main Different types of copolymers Monomers within a copolymer may be organized along the backbone in a variety of ways.

One method is to include a relatively small amount of brominated monomer during the polymerization process.

One number after "PA" for a homopolymer based on one monomer, and two numbers or sets of letters where there are two monomers.

Other than its direct use as a monomer, glucose can be broken down to synthesize a wide variety of other biomolecules.

Polyester is created through ester linkages between monomers, which involve the functional groups carboxyl and hydroxyl (an organic acid and an alcohol monomer).
