Abstract
A broad family of materials called polymers is made up of several tiny molecules. Nearly every industry uses polymers, including rubber, cotton, wool, Teflon(tm), and plastics of all kinds. The remarkable resemblance between the infrared absorption spectra of heavenly objects and cellulose indicates its existence. The uppermost layer of the film is composed of cellulose pellicle. Most materials, including the metal used in springs, are elastic because of bond distortions. Rubber's lengthy, tightly wrapped polymer chains are connected at a few locations when it is relaxed. The main goal of polymeric delivery systems is to produce regulated or prolonged pharmaceutical dispersion. It has also been possible to target medications to the colon after oral administration by utilizing polysaccharides. Future interesting new applications for polymeric materials have a huge promise. Uses for polymers are being developed in a wide range of fields.
