Career in Polymer Science
Introduction of the Career
Polymer Science and technology deals with the study and applications of Polymers. Polymers are long-chain, repeating molecules. Plastics, elastomers, etc. are polymers. This field is highly multidisciplinary. It combines the knowledge of chemistry, mathematics, biochemistry, and engineering. Polymers provide advanced technologies even in our everyday items, like TV’s, aircraft engines, medical devices, and even coatings and paints.
