Irregular dendrimer molecule

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-006156",
  "term": "Irregular dendrimer molecule",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A macromolecule with a highly branched, tree-like structure where the dendrons emanating from the core or from branching points are not all identical in their structure or generation. This lack of perfect symmetry distinguishes it from a regular dendrimer molecule. The irregularity can influence its physical and chemical properties.",
