It consists of dextran polymer chains cross-linked into a three-dimensional network.
There is a three-dimensional network of cell processes associated with collagen in the tendon.
The crosslinking present in polyurethanes means that the polymer consists of a three-dimensional network and molecular weight is very high.
For three-dimensional networks of oxygen-containing polyhedra, at least three corners must be shared.
Methyltrichlorosilane can be used as a means of cross-linking polymers to give a three-dimensional network.
They have a three-dimensional cross-linked network within the liquid.
Upon closer inspection, though, the shell proves to be a three-dimensional network of connected "U" shapes.
This technique works great on the two-dimensional plane, but when trying to create a three-dimensional network, they are limited.
The material, which the researchers call Automend, is built of two small molecular building blocks that interlock with each other into a vast three-dimensional network.
They have paraphyses which anastomose and form a three-dimensional network.
