Intii lagu guda jiray sannadkii 1938-kii, ka dib markii uu dhintay Carothers, Flory wuxuu u wareegay shaybaarka cilmi-baarista sayniska aasaasiga ah ee Jaamacadda Cincinnati. Halkaas ayuu ku soo saaray aragti xisaabeed oo loogu talagalay polymerization ee xeryahooda leh in ka badan laba kooxood oo shaqeynaya iyo aragtida shabakadaha polymer ama jel.

Su'aal: Goorma ayuu Carothers dhintay?
