Cross-link is a bond that links one polymer chain to another polymer chain. So cross-linked polymers are polymers that obtained when cross-link bond formed between monomeric units. The cross-linked polymer forms long chains, either branched or linear, that can form covalent bonds between the polymer molecules.
a polymer with a simple linear structure is formed. In some polymers shorter chains grow off the long chain at certain intervals, so that a branched structure is formed. In other polymers the branches become numerous and cross-link to other polymer chains, thus forming a network structure
