    Polymerization
    In polymer chemistry, `polymerization` is a process of bonding monomers, or `single units` together through a variety of reaction mechanisms to form longer chains named polymers. Polymers exist as a variety of 3-dimensional shapes, each with specific individual properties relevant to the monomers or reaction mechanisms they are formed from.

19. 
    Polymerization
    The process of converting a monomer or a mixture of monomers into a polymer. Addition polymerization is the stepwise addition of a simple repeated unit. Or, the reaction that yields a product that is an exact multiple of the original monomeric molecule. Condensation polymerization is the combination of functional molecules, leading to the formation of a polymer with the liberation of simple by-pro...
