Strengthening of polymers 1

In this video I begin to explain the ways that we can strengthen polymers by engineering the microstructure - that is, changing the arrangement of molecules and the interactions between molecules. Specifically I discuss molecular weight, cross-linking, and some basic changes to the mer chemistry.  Increased crystallinity is covered in a separate video (see card at the end of video).
