Crosslinking is a chemical process of bonding links between polymer chains. The polymer chains can be referred to as synthetic polymers or natural polymers. The bond may be ionic or covalent bond. In a majority of cases, the crosslink is a covalent structure. When crosslinks are added to polymers, they lose the ability to move as individual polymer chains. Crosslinking is employed for both biological sciences and synthetic polymer chemistry. In synthetic polymers, the term ’crosslink’ usually refers to promote a difference in the polymers’ physical and mechanical properties. The modification of properties depends on crosslink density. When the crosslink density is low, it decreases the viscosities of polymer melts, a high density crosslink causes material to become very rigid and an intermediate density crosslink give polymers an elastomeric property and high strength. A liquid polymer can be turned into gel or solid by crosslinking. Crosslinked polymers are mechanically strong a...
