Preferred Label : regular polymer;
IUPAC definition : A polymer composed of regular macromolecules, regular star macromolecules or regular
comb macromolecules. A polymer consisting of star macromolecules with arms identical
with respect to constitution and degree of polymerization is considered to be regular.
Analogously, a polymer consisting of comb macromolecules with the sub-chains between
the branch points of the main chain and the terminal sub-chains of the main chain
identical with respect to constitution and degree of polymerization and the side-chains
identical with respect to constitution and degree of polymerization is considered
to be regular.;
