Definition
高分子 is the Chinese term for 'macromolecule' or 'polymer' — a molecule with a very large molecular weight made up of repeating subunits. It's a technical term used primarily in chemistry and materials science, covering natural polymers like proteins and cellulose as well as synthetic ones like plastics and rubber. You'll encounter it in academic or industrial contexts, not everyday conversation.
