Description
Noel George, Usha Arcot, and Bruntha Devi Palanisamy published a 2026 mathematics paper on six common plastics, treated as chains of repeating units. They use a formula called the M-polynomial, which captures the structure of a molecular graph in algebraic form. From that single formula, many numerical measures of structure can be derived.
The plastics covered are polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, polystyrene, nylon-6,6, and PET. For each chain the authors work out the formula as a function of chain length, then compute eleven standard measures, including the Zagreb and Randic indices. Graphs comparing the plastics show how the measures grow and differ, which can help predict material properties from structure alone.
