Polymers are large molecules, composed of small repeating units called monomers. Versatile properties enable varied uses of polymers (e.g. in adhesives, packaging and tires) as well as make the polymers potential novel materials for new applications. However, for the development of novel (and useful) polymers, a good understanding of their properties is needed. Statistical models are used for the prediction of properties and behaviour of polymer chains. The article first discusses some simpler ideal polymer chain statistical models, which are used to calculate the end-to-end distance and radius of gyration. All models in the article allow more than one monomer to occupy the same position in space. The non-covalent interactions between particles in real polymer chains are considered in excluded volume model and Flory model.
