How Macromolecules or Polymers Are Built
On the formation of macromolecules or polymers
Between heaven and earth, everything is from micro to big, and gradually becomes a big view. The construction of macromolecules or polymers also follows this path, following the law of nature, showing subtle principles.
The view of biochemistry of all things, the formation of macromolecules and polymers, begins with the basic elements. The basic elements, if masonry is in Guangsha, the micro-particles are the beginning of macrostructure. Each basic element has its own characteristics, or has active energy, or is in a stable state, but it all has the potential of polymerization.
The path of polymerization is not achieved overnight. Common ones include addition polymerization and condensation polymerization. During addition polymerization, the double or triple bonds between the elementary molecules open at every opportune moment, such as a door opening, welcoming others into it. The elements are attached end to end, just like strings of beads, and they grow gradually to form a long chain of macromolecules. During this process, no small molecules escape, and the growth of the chain is simple and direct, just like a stream converging, rushing forward, gathering sand into a tower, and finally forming a giant.
Condensation polymerization is different from this. Primitives meet, and in chemical reactions, each goes its own way and interacts. However, in this process, small molecules such as water and alcohol escape. Its shape is like a craftsman's tool, cutting the complexity is simple, removing the excess and leaving the essence. Although the elements are missing, they are more closely connected, forming the skeleton of the polymer. This skeleton structure is exquisite, and due to the departure of small molecules, it has a more stable quality, like steel that has been tempered, hard and tough.
The construction of macromolecules or polymers also depends on external help. If the temperature is the furnace fire of creation, the temperature will promote the speed of reaction, the molecules are active, the collision is frequent, and the polymerization is easy; if the temperature is high, the molecules are too restless and the reaction is out of order; if the temperature is low, the molecules are lazy and the polymerization is slow. The catalyst, like the guide of the clever hand, points the way in the chaos, lowers the barrier of reaction, and makes the polymerization road unimpeded. Although it itself did not change at the end of the reaction, it made outstanding achievements in the process, leading the group to step into the polymerization track.
And the structure of macromolecules is not the same. Those with linearity, chain-like extension, supple and flexible, like the continuous thread of silk; those with branched chains, the side escape obliquely, enriching its shape and increasing its space state; those with network-like, cross-linked vertically and horizontally, stable and firm, like weaving a web of heaven and earth, giving the polymer its unique properties.
In general, the formation of macromolecules or polymers is the method of polymerization, with the help of external forces, and according to exquisite rules. This process reveals the mysteries of heaven and earth at the microscopic level, and reveals the wonders of all things at the macroscopic level. It is actually a delicate ensemble of nature and chemistry, adding many magnificent colors to the world.
