Polymolecular
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-009204
Describing an entity that consists of many molecules, for example an aggregate, micelle or other self-assembled structure built from numerous individual molecules. The word belongs to the terminology of polymer aggregation and self-assembly. It contrasts with unimolecular structures, such as the unimolecular micelles formed by a single macromolecule.
