A Chain Of Chains.....

a: Each monomer ~
b: single link in a chain

What: "A single combination of plastic molecules is called a 'monomer'. "Each monomer is like a single link in a chain." When they are joined together, usually by using heat and/or pressure and sometimes a catalyst, they make long chains that form a material with a useful mixture of properties."

Useful?
