Hyper-dimensional Polymer Ontology

Dimensions An ontology to capture the staggering diversity of polymeric materials and their applications.

We apply semantic technologies to describe the following domains:

  • Composite materials
  • Energy materials
  • Bio-materials.

EMMO remarks

List here the feedback on EMMO classes.

  • emmo:Objective remove it as a covering class.
  • emmo:Representation could also be a subclass of emmo:SymbolicConstruct?
  • Missing classes that should be in EMMO:
    • MolecularWeight and Strength as sublasses of emmo:Intensive -> emmo:CategorizedPhysicalQuantity.
    • ChemicalReaction as a subclass of emmo:PhysicalPhenomenon (a emmo:Process).
    • ChemicalStructure as a subclass of emmo:NominalProperty? And distinct from emmo:StructuralFormula, which stands for a graphical representation of a molecular structure showing the relative position in space of atoms and bonds. The ChemicalStructure is a covering class that should be used for hpo:Branched, hpo:crosslinked, and hpo:Linear instead or them being sublasses of hpo:SkeletalFormula. Also, ChemicalStructure will cover: hpo:isotactic, hpo:syndiotactic, and hpo:atactic.
