Crystallisable polymer

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-002764",
  "term": "Crystallisable polymer",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A polymer that can form a crystalline phase under appropriate conditions, characterized by a regular arrangement of its molecular chains. This ability depends on factors such as molecular symmetry, chain flexibility, and intermolecular forces. The degree of crystallinity significantly influences the mechanical and thermal properties of the material.",
