  2. Methyl methacrylate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_methacrylate

    MMA is a raw material for the manufacture of other methacrylates. These derivatives include ethyl methacrylate (EMA), butyl methacrylate (BMA) and 2-ethyl hexyl methacrylate (2-EHMA). Methacrylic acid (MAA) is used as a chemical intermediate as well as in the manufacture of coating polymers, construction chemicals and textile applications.

  3. Food plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_plot

    Food plot in Germany. A food plot is a planted area set aside to act as a supplementary food source for wildlife. The term was coined by the U.S. hunting and outdoor industries and food plots are most commonly planted for game species. Food plot crops generally consist of but are not limited to legumes (clovers, alfalfa, beans, etc.), grains ...

  4. Methacrylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methacrylic_acid

    Methacrylic acid, abbreviated MAA, is an organic compound with the formula CH 2 =C(CH 3)CO 2 H. This colorless, viscous liquid is a carboxylic acid with an acrid unpleasant odor.

  5. Monomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monomer

    Epoxide monomers may be cross linked with themselves, or with the addition of a co-reactant, to form epoxy; BPA is the monomer precursor for polycarbonate; Terephthalic acid is a comonomer that, with ethylene glycol, forms polyethylene terephthalate. Dimethylsilicon dichloride is a monomer that, upon hydrolysis, gives polydimethylsiloxane.

  6. Polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer

    Polyisoprene of latex rubber is an example of a natural polymer, and the polystyrene of styrofoam is an example of a synthetic polymer. In biological contexts, essentially all biological macromolecules —i.e., proteins (polyamides), nucleic acids (polynucleotides), and polysaccharides —are purely polymeric, or are composed in large part of ...

  7. Comonomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comonomer

    The homopolymers of acrylate esters (e.g., butyl acrylate) have few applications.Copolymers however have many applications/ They are produced by copolymerization of alkyl acrylates and one or more of the following comonomers methyl methacrylate, styrene, acrylonitrile, vinyl acetate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, and butadiene.

  8. Molecularly imprinted polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecularly_imprinted_polymer

    For example, it would be unwise to choose completely hydrophobic monomers to be imprinted with a highly hydrophilic substrate. These considerations need to be taken into account before any new MIP is created. Molecular modelling can be used to predict favourable interactions between templates and monomers, allowing intelligent monomer selection.

  9. Oligomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oligomer

    An oligosaccharide is an oligomer of monosaccharides (simple sugars). An oligonucleotide is a short single-stranded fragment of nucleic acid such as DNA or RNA, or similar fragments of analogs of nucleic acids such as peptide nucleic acid or Morpholinos. A pentamer unit of the major capsid protein VP1. Each monomer is in a different color.
