TL;DR: Of particular interest is the domain of the so-called “degradable or biodegradable polymers” that are aimed at providing materials with specific time-limited applications in medicine and in the environment where the respect of living systems, the elimination, and/or the bio-recycling are mandatory, at least ideally.

TL;DR: A joint working party of IUPAC/IUBMB members has prepared these recommendations, which establish rules for the general nomenclature of flavonoids, providing examples of acceptable trivial names, and names derived from trivial names as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The universal adoption of an agreed nomenclature has never been more important for the description of chemical structures in publishing and online searching as mentioned in this paper, and the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) make similar recommendations.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors define class names of polymers based on the starting monomers and characteristic features of the chemical constitution of polymer molecules (macromolecules), i.e., class names that have gained general acceptance in polymer and material literature, science and technology as well as in public.

TL;DR: The adoption of a nomenclatura quimica consensuada is a herramienta clave for la comunicación eficiente en las ciencias quimicas, for the busqueda con ordenadores en bases de datos and con fine regulatorios, tales como los asociados a la salud y la seguridad o a la actividad comercial as discussed by the authors.
