Polymers are large molecules formed by the repetition of small units called monomers. Monomers, through chemical bonding, form long chains, and when several chains are linked together, polymers are created. The word “polymer” has Greek roots and is derived from the word “poly,” meaning many, and “mer,” meaning part or unit.
Polymers can be either natural or synthetic. Natural polymers such as cellulose, starch, protein, and DNA are involved in the structure and function of living organisms. Synthetic polymers such as plastics, rubber, adhesives, foam and etc. are used to produce various materials such as nylon, bags, stretch films, cellophane, packaging, clothing, insulation, adhesives and etc.
Polyethylene, Polystyrene, Rubber and ABS are examples of polymeric materials that Petro Nour Mehr Trading Company can provide.
