polymers are defined as macromolecules composed of one or more chemical units (monomers) that are repeated throughout a chain.
A polymer is like a thread joins many coins punched through the center, in the end we get a string of coins, the coins would be the monomers, and the chain with the coins would be the polymer.
The basic part of a polymer are the monomers, the monomers are the chemical units that are repeated throughout the chain of a polymer, eg polyethylene monomer is ethylene, which is repeated x times along throughout the chain.
Polyethylene = ethylene-ethylene-ethylene-ethylene-ethylene-...
polymer
Depending on the repetition or variety of monomers, polymers are classified as:
Homopolymer - It is called when the polymer formed by the same monomer throughout its chain.
Copolymer - It is called when the polymer formed by at least 2 different monomers along the entire chain.
The formation of the polymer chains are produced by different polyreactions that can occur between monomers. These reactions are classified as:
Polymerization
Polycondensation
Polyaddition
Depending on how they are linked or joined (chemical bonds or intermolecular forces) and on the arrangement of the different chains that forms the polymer, the resulting polymeric materials can be classified as:
Thermoplastics
Elastomers
Thermosets
Depending on the chemical composition, polymers can be inorganic such as glass, or they can be organic, such as adhesives of epoxy resin. Organic polymers can be also divided into natural polymers such as proteins and synthetic polymers as thermosets materials.
There are different parameters that measure the properties of polymers as the radius of gyration, the density of the polymer, the average distance between the polymer chains, the length of the quasi-static segment within the polymer chains, etc ...
Among the properties that define the properties of polymers, the most important are:
The glass transition temperature of the polymer.
The average molecular weight of the polymer molecular.

i can give you the proof that the answer is copied by giving you the link
check
from where you had copied it
but meri book mai toh yahi likha hai
BRO Maine pada hai
if u r saying truth then also the answer is incomplete
I know because I don't know about classification OF polymer toh maine ni likha
jitna mughe ata tha utna likh diya
then the answer is incomplete and it should be deleted

The word polymer is derived from the classical Greek words poly meaning “many” and meres meaning “parts.” Simply stated, a polymer is a long-chain molecule that is composed of a large number of repeating unitsof identical structure.
copied from net
and where is the classification table
the answer is reported and will be deleted
