[...] si les réactions de polycondensation se distinguent nettement des réactions de polymérisation en chaîne, par leurs cinétiques et mécanismes, la séparation en «polycondensats» et «polymères» des produits obtenus est très arbitraire. Ainsi, certains polysiloxanes peuvent être préparés à la fois par polymérisation par ouverture de cycle et par polycondensation. 4, record 1, French, - polym%C3%A8re%20de%20condensation

Une âme nid d'abeilles, ou nida, est une âme à structure alvéolaire. Elle peut être en aluminium, en tissu de verre ou en Kevlar. La structure nid d'abeilles est largement utilisée en aéronautique, entre des parois en aluminium ou en alliage léger. Le sandwich obtenu présente de bonnes résistances mécanique, acoustique et thermique. Le recours à des nids d'abeilles en alliage léger ou en acier limite le coût du matériau tout en offrant un accroissement de la résistance. Les nids d'abeilles non métalliques, que sont par exemple des papiers ou des tissus imprégnés de résine ou encore des feuilles de polyamide, présentent des qualités d'insensibilité à la corrosion et d'isolation thermique. 1, record 2, French, - %C3%A2me%20nid%20d%27abeilles

Polyamide is the technical name given to :... Nylon 6, 6; poly(hexamethyleneadipamide) ;-NH(CH2) 6NHCO(CH2) 8CO-.... Nylon 6, 6. In 1928, W. H. Carothers at Du Pont began systematic studies on condensation polymers, including nylon-type polyamides. In 1935, he first made nylon 6, 6 by polycondensation of hexamethylene diamine with adipic acid.... Nylon 6, 6, the first polyamide to appear on the market... The first product sold was a brush bristle. Ladies’ stockings followed one year later. Nylon 6, 6 molding powder was first offered for sale in the United States in 1941. Early applications were textile machinery gears and electrical coil forms. 2, record 3, English, - nylon%206%2C6
