👉 Ionomers are a class of polymers that consist of one or more repeating units, called an imine (an imine is a functional group containing a nitrogen atom), and can be characterized by their ability to form stable ionic bonds. These bonds are formed between the imine groups of two different monomers, which can result in the formation of a polymer. Ionomers have been widely used in various applications such as pharmaceuticals, electronics, and cosmetics due to their unique properties and versatility.
