Abstract

In this review article, it contains information about the definition of polymer, types of polymer based on repetition or variety of monomers and how they are linked or joined and on the arrangements of the different chains that forms the polymer and on chemical classification. It also contains information about the polymer characterization techniques such as small angle x-ray scattering, nuclear magnetic resonance, x-ray diffraction, thermal characterization such as differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis, mechanical characterization such as tensile strength test and dynamic mechanical analysis, microscopic methods such as scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy.

Keywords: Calorimetry and thermogravimetric.
