PolymerA polymer is a long, repeating chain of atoms, formed through the linkage of many molecules called monomers. The monomers can be identical, or in complex polymers such as proteins the monomers have one or more substituted chemical groups, this gives them Polymerase chain reactionPolymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is a molecular biological method for amplifying (creating multiple copies of) DNA without using a living organism, such as E. coli or yeast. PCR is commonly used in medical and biological research labs for a variety of task PolymeraseA polymerase is an enzyme whose central function is associated with polymers of nucleic acids such as RNA and DNA. The most well known function of a polymerase is the catalysis of production of new DNA or RNA from an existing DNA or RNA template, a proces PolymerizationPolymerization is the formation of long, repeating organic polymer chains. There are many forms of polymerization, and different systems exist to categorize them. Categorizations include the addition-condensation system and the chain growth-step growth sy Polymer physicsPolymer physics is the physics and chemistry of polymer engineering, as well as the reactions involving degradation and polymerisation of polymers and monomers respectively.

Polymer-bonded explosiveA polymer-bonded explosive also called PBX or plastic-bonded explosive is an explosive material in which particles of explosive are set into a matrix of a synthetic polymer ("plastic").
