Polydiene

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-009129",
  "term": "Polydiene",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A polymer derived from the polymerization of diene monomers, which contain two carbon-carbon double bonds. The polymerization can occur through 1,2- or 1,4-addition, leading to different microstructures. Polydienes, such as polybutadiene and polyisoprene, are widely used as elastomers and in the production of synthetic rubbers.",
