It is a fundamental chemical process that involves the creation of large, complex molecules called polymers by linking together smaller units known as monomers. This reaction is pivotal in the formation of various synthetic materials and natural substances found in living organisms. In addition polymerization, monomers with unsaturated bonds join together, forming a chain-like structure without the elimination of any byproducts. This process often requires initiators to kickstart the reaction. Advancements in polymerization techniques contribute to the creation of high-performance materials, including specialized coatings, adhesives, and composites. Researchers in Materials Science and Engineering explore various polymerization methods to enhance the performance, durability, and functionality of materials, thereby driving innovation in fields like electronics, aerospace, and biomaterials. The study of polymerization mechanisms and the structure-property relationships of polymers is central to optimizing materials for specific applications, underscoring the crucial role of polymerization in advancing the discipline.
