Talk:Cross-link
which polymer has the most cross-linking out of elastic bands, golf balls and saucepan handles?
[edit] "Cross Linker" Section
The Cross Linker section is clearly copy-pasted from a commercial website, and even advertises its products at the bottom. Candidate for deletion? 96.237.161.212 (talk) 03:20, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, removed. Materialscientist (talk) 03:27, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Search Results
I was looking for this article, and typed in "cross linked proteins" (didn't type it in quotes). This article is nowhere near the top of the list! I don't know if there's a way to make this article come up higher ranked for that type of a search ("cross linked *"), or if the title(s) "Cross linked (or Cross-linked) protein(s)" should be made into redirects, or what.
What does anyone else think? Is there a way to rank this article higher for certain searches? Should someone go through and make a bunch of silly redirects? Is it fine the way it is (hey, I found what I was looking for, right)? — KyleP 21:28, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
Vulcanization
Is it just me, or is the vulcanization image on this page incorrect, from a chemistry standpoint? It looks like the cross-linked poly(isoprene) is missing some CH3 groups. If you look at the "vulcanization" wikipedia page, there is a very similar image, but with the CH3 groups included. I think the image on this page needs to be corrected. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.81.122.66 (talk) 20:17, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Reticulation
Umm, the word "reticulation" redirects here, but it's not mentioned on the page at all. Is cross-linking related to reticulation, or is this a completely bogus redirection? Thanks. 24.82.209.151 (talk) 02:33, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
- the redirect should perhaps not link to this page see http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/reticulation. Relink to network? V8rik (talk) 21:12, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Hyphenation
The 1986 edition of The ACS Style Guide says "cross-link" should be hyphenated.
[edit] Biological Crosslinks
I added information about biological use of crosslinks used clinically. DanielGlazer (talk) 05:24, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
