.. SubstancePolymer TUDomainResourceProperties of a substance specific to it being a polymer

Elements defined in Ancestors: id, meta, implicitRules, language, text, contained, extension, modifierExtension
... identifier Σ0..1IdentifierA business idenfier for this polymer, but typically this is handled by a SubstanceDefinition identifier
... class Σ0..1CodeableConceptOverall type of the polymer
... geometry Σ0..1CodeableConceptPolymer geometry, e.g. linear, branched, cross-linked, network or dendritic
... copolymerConnectivity Σ0..*CodeableConceptDescrtibes the copolymer sequence type (polymer connectivity)

... modification Σ0..1stringTodo - this is intended to connect to a repeating full modification structure, also used by Protein and Nucleic Acid . String is just a placeholder
... monomerSet Σ0..*BackboneElementTodo

.... ratioType Σ0..1CodeableConceptCaptures the type of ratio to the entire polymer, e.g. Monomer/Polymer ratio, SRU/Polymer Ratio
.... startingMaterial Σ0..*BackboneElementThe starting materials - monomer(s) used in the synthesis of the polymer

..... code Σ0..1CodeableConceptThe type of substance for this starting material
..... category Σ0..1CodeableConceptSubstance high level category, e.g. chemical substance
..... isDefining Σ0..1booleanUsed to specify whether the attribute described is a defining element for the unique identification of the polymer
..... amount Σ0..1QuantityA percentage
... repeat Σ0..*BackboneElementSpecifies and quantifies the repeated units and their configuration

.... averageMolecularFormula Σ0..1stringA representation of an (average) molecular formula from a polymer
.... repeatUnitAmountType Σ0..1CodeableConceptHow the quantitative amount of Structural Repeat Units is captured (e.g. Exact, Numeric, Average)
.... repeatUnit Σ0..*BackboneElementAn SRU - Structural Repeat Unit

..... unit Σ0..1stringStructural repeat units are essential elements for defining polymers
..... orientation Σ0..1CodeableConceptThe orientation of the polymerisation, e.g. head-tail, head-head, random
..... amount Σ0..1integerNumber of repeats of this unit
..... degreeOfPolymerisation Σ0..*BackboneElementApplies to homopolymer and block co-polymers where the degree of polymerisation within a block can be described

...... type Σ0..1CodeableConceptThe type of the degree of polymerisation shall be described, e.g. SRU/Polymer Ratio
...... average Σ0..1integerAn average amount of polymerisation
...... low Σ0..1integerA low expected limit of the amount
...... high Σ0..1integerA high expected limit of the amount
..... structuralRepresentation Σ0..*BackboneElementA graphical structure for this SRU

...... type Σ0..1CodeableConceptThe type of structure (e.g. Full, Partial, Representative)
...... representation Σ0..1stringThe structural representation as text string in a standard format e.g. InChI, SMILES, MOLFILE, CDX, SDF, PDB, mmCIF
...... format Σ0..1CodeableConceptThe format of the representation e.g. InChI, SMILES, MOLFILE, CDX, SDF, PDB, mmCIF
...... attachment Σ0..1AttachmentAn attached file with the structural representation
