Flexible polymers are materials that can bend and stretch without breaking. They are made up of long chains of molecules that can move easily, allowing the material to return to its original shape after being deformed. Common examples include rubber and silicone, which are used in various applications like gaskets, seals, and toys. These polymers are valued for their durability and versatility. They can be produced in different forms, such as films, foams, and fibers, making them suitable for a wide range of industries, including automotive, medical, and packaging. Their flexibility often enhances product performance and user comfort.
