Macromolecular Science

Macromolecular science focuses on the study of large molecules, particularly polymers, which are long chains of repeated units. These materials, such as plastics, rubber, and biological molecules like DNA, have unique properties that make them essential in everyday life and various industries. Polymer chemistry, a key area within macromolecular science, explores how these large molecules are synthesized, structured, and how their properties can be tailored for specific applications. Understanding these concepts allows scientists and engineers to develop new materials with improved performance for use in everything from packaging to medical devices.
