Molecules that are made up of multiple repeating subunits, known as monomers, which may vary or not in their chemical structure, are classified as macromolecules or polymers. Examples exist in nature, ...

A theoretical analysis of polymer behavior suggests that large molecules should behave very differently when they are in a vacuum than when in solution. The finding suggests that with better ...

Chemists at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory have developed a method for producing new macromolecules ...
