Polymer Hydration

Polymer Hydration is a physicochemical process in which water molecules interact with and become associated with polymer chains, particularly in biopolymers, leading to structural stabilization or conformational changes through the formation of hydration shells around hydrophilic or polar groups along the polymer backbone.
