Step-growth Polymerization

Step-Growth Polymerization is a polymerization mechanism in which polymer chains are formed by stepwise reactions between complementary functional groups of bi- or multifunctional monomeric and oligomeric species, such that molecules of all sizes can interreact (often with elimination of small molecules) and high molecular weight polymer is achieved only at high conversion.
