Polymer Physics is the study of the physical properties and behaviors of polymers, which are large molecules made up of repeating structural units called monomers. These materials can be natural, like rubber and proteins, or synthetic, like plastics. Understanding how polymers interact with heat, light, and mechanical forces is crucial for developing new materials with specific characteristics. Researchers in Polymer Physics explore concepts such as elasticity, viscosity, and phase transitions. This field combines principles from chemistry, physics, and materials science to analyze how polymers can be manipulated for various applications, including packaging, textiles, and biomedical devices.
