Polymer Chemistry: The Backbone Behind Gellner Industrial
Though our polymers appear in everyday applications, such as vinyl or in your favorite paints, the chemistry behind their creation is not so commonplace.Polymer chemistry is a part of chemistry that deals specifically with the chemical structures and characteristics behind polymers, especially in cases of synthetic polymers often called plastics or elastomers. Polymer chemistry is a smaller part of what is considered polymer science. Polymer physics and polymer engineering are two other manifestations of polymer related studies.An important part of understanding polymers is understanding how they are classified. Polymers are often divided into two different sub-groups. These groups are biopolymers […]
What Is A Polymer?
If you are interested in Gellner Industrial, you probably have a basic understanding of what a polymer is. However, if you don’t, we thought we’d give a little rundown on our biggest product- polymers. Though we specialize in acrylic polymers, the science behind our products is consistent with other types of more basic polymers.So what are polymers? Well, polymers are made up of a bunch of molecules that are strung together to form really long chains. Of course, sometimes, the molecules combine to form more complicated structures. However, what makes polymers so interesting is that how they act completely depends […]
The Many Applications Of Polymers
Polymers may sound like a very industry specific thing, and to some degree they are, but they are actually a pretty big part of a lot of industries you may indeed recognize. Polymer testing and consultancy for plastic has applications in such industries as aerospace, automotive, electronics, packaging and medical devices. Polymers are incredibly diverse elements that represent such fields of engineering from avionics through biomedical applications, drug delivery system, biosensor devices, tissue engineering, cosmetics etc. the application of polymers and their subsequent composites is still advancing and increasing quickly due to their ease regarding manufacturing. When considering a polymer application, […]
How Gellner Industrial Can Save Your Company Money

Subsequently, you will probably be interested to know how Gellner Industrial can help your company, especially in the financial sense. But in order to understand that, it is first important to see how Gellner Industrial provides value, even without a dollar sign attached. Gellner Industrial’s value lies in its cutting edge processes that create their renowned acrylic polymers. So how exactly are their polymers created? Well, they are created […]
Gellner Industrial: Our Polymer Dictionary
If you have been on Gellner Industrial’s site, you have probably noticed that a lot of words on there are well, not at a third grade reading level. No, to be familiar with Gellner Industrial as a company. You have to be familiar with the science behind it. You have probably seen words like acrylic polymer, anionic acrylic polymer, cationic acrylic polymer, hydroxyl functional acrylic polymer and non ionic acrylic polymer. Say what? Don’t worry, we will back it up a little for you and define each of the words that play such an integral part in our company as […]
Part Two: The Role of Polymers in the Future
In our previous blog post, we discussed how polymers are currently being implemented in daily life. We realized they have immense implications, serving a part in some of our favorite materials, including; tupperware, clothing made from synthetic fibers, polymer based paints (which you know we especially love here at Gellner Industrial, the industry standard for acrylic polymer-based paints), plastic bags and much, much more. But this is 2018 and everything is changing. We are witnessing great strides being made in a myriad of industries and you bet your bottom dollar that this growth extends to polymers and polymer-based products too. […]
