Ferromagnetic polymer

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-004387",
  "term": "Ferromagnetic polymer",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A polymeric material that exhibits spontaneous magnetization in the absence of an external magnetic field, similar to conventional ferromagnetic metals. This property arises from the alignment of electron spins within the polymer structure. Such materials are rare and often involve specific organic radicals or metal-containing polymer complexes.",
  "subject": "Polymer",
