INTRODUCTION
After a brief review of the chemical nature of polymers with a three-dimensional covalent backbone, we propose to introduce the reader :
the representation of network structures as a function of chemical data on the system;
the theoretical determination, based on these representations, of the structural variables defining the network (such as the one known in practice as –, often improperly – cross-linking rate);
and, finally, to the experimental determination of these variables.
