The chemical composition of phenol and formaldehyde and their combination into networks of permanently interlinked large molecules are explained briefly in the article aldehyde condensation polymer.
The truncated megaplasmid could not be partitioned appropriately, as interlinked megaplasmid molecules (catenenes) could be detected, and the ParBm- parSm complexes in this mutant lost their polar localization.
The enhancement of fracture toughness of the interface was evaluated as a function of molecular weight and content of ω-amino-PS, i.e. interlinking chain length and area density of interlinking molecules.
Thus, the material is a rubbery solid at normal temperatures, even though there are no chemical bonds interlinking the molecules.
In each case a hydrogen atom is torn away from the elastomer molecule, leaving a highly reactive carbon atom (the radical) that will couple with another carbon radical to create a stable C−C bond, interlinking different molecules.
Here, the amine end-group of ω-amino-PS in the PS/ω-amino-PS blend is known to react with the anhydride group of SMA and form an end-grafted copolymer, which acts as an interlinking molecule across an interface and improves the interfacial adhesion strength.
Cellulose is arranged in bundles while their molecules are interlinked with each other by another molecule named hemicellulose [17].
In H2Pp, the molecules are interconnected through π⋯π and C H⋯π interactions to form 3D architecture, while in Co II Pp the porphyrin molecules are interlinked only by C H⋯π interactions to yield 3D structure.
The first, C42(16), in which 9-AA cations, a Cl− anion and a water molecule are interlinked, and the second, C 7), in which aromatic carboxylic acid anions are connected directly.
