Frequently asked questions

Do the polymer templates show repeat units?

Yes. Each polymer is drawn with its repeat unit in brackets with n, next to the monomers it comes from.

Are the polymerisation steps shown?

Initiation, propagation and termination are drawn with curly arrows for the chain-growth mechanisms.

Are the polymers templates free?

3 of the 6 polymers templates are free to download. All of them can be previewed here and opened and edited in MolDraw; downloading the premium ones is part of MolDraw Pro.
