polymer density
[ˈpɒlɪmər ˈdɛnsɪti]
nounpl: polymer densities
densidade do polímero
1. the mass per unit volume of a polymer material, typically measured in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³) or kilograms per cubic meter (kg/m³)
The polymer density affects the material's buoyancy and mechanical properties.
A densidade do polímero afeta a flutuabilidade e as propriedades mecânicas do material.
2. a physical property that indicates how tightly packed the polymer chains are in a given volume
High-density polyethylene has a greater polymer density than low-density polyethylene.
O polietileno de alta densidade tem maior densidade de polímero do que o polietileno de baixa densidade.
3. a characteristic used to classify and identify different types of polymers in materials science
Engineers measure polymer density to determine suitability for specific applications.
Os engenheiros medem a densidade do polímero para determinar a adequação para aplicações específicas.
This is a specialized technical term primarily used in materials science, polymer chemistry, and engineering fields. It has no colloquial variations and is used identically in English-speaking countries and Brazil. The term is essential in plastics manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and packaging industries where material properties are critical for product development and quality control.
