  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-001381",
  "term": "Block polymer",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A polymer composed of two or more blocks, where each block is a segment of the polymer chain with distinct chemical or physical properties. These blocks are covalently linked. Block polymers are often synthesized to combine the properties of different homopolymers within a single material.",
