Defect Structures

Defect Structures is a polymer science construct that identifies and classifies deviations from the ideal periodic arrangement of monomers within a polymer's unit cell, serving to characterize structural irregularities such as vacancies, interstitial inclusions, dislocations, and chain-end defects that disrupt the crystalline or semi-crystalline order.
