Quinone Polymerization

Quinone Polymerization is a chemical process in which oxidized quinone molecules undergo covalent linkage to form complex polymeric pigments, distinguished within enzymatic browning by its role in generating brown melanin-like compounds through the non-enzymatic condensation of phenolic oxidation products.
