文摘When Eric Fawcett and Reginald Gibson discovered polyethylene accidentally,they never realized how useful their discovery will be for mankind,similar to how Charles Goodyear’s idea of adding sulphur to polyisoprene would revolutionize the tire and other rubber industries.Although those discoveries centuries ago have never realized their current impact,however,the fact is undeniable on how polymer science has conquered the world,gaining an irreplaceable position from a utilitarian perspective.We are currently bombarded with multifarious polymer compositions which differ on the basis of source,origin,and dimensions.
