synthetic polymer

Synthetic polymers are human-made materials composed of large molecules called polymers, created through chemical processes. They are derived from natural substances like petroleum, natural gas, or coal. These materials can be molded, stretched, or shaped into various products like plastics, fibers, and rubbers. Synthetic polymers are widely used because they are durable, lightweight, and versatile, making them essential in packaging, clothing, electronics, and many everyday items. Their ability to be customized for specific properties has revolutionized modern manufacturing and everyday life.
