  From  Webster's  Revised  Unabridged  Dictionary  (1913)  [web1913]: 
 
  Polymeric  \Pol`y*mer"ic\,  a.  [Poly-  +  Gr  ?  part.]  (Chem.) 
  Having  the  same  percentage  composition  (that  is  having  the 
  same  elements  united  in  the  same  proportion  by  weight),  but 
  different  molecular  weights;  --  often  used  with  with  thus 
  cyanic  acid  ({CNOH}),  fulminic  acid  ({C2N2O2H2}),  and 
  cyanuric  acid  ({C3N3O3H3}),  are  polymeric  with  each  other 
 
  Note:  The  figures  expressing  the  number  of  atoms  of  each 
  element  in  a  number  of  polymeric  substances  are 
  respectively  multiples  and  factors  of  each  other  or 
  have  some  simple  common  divisor.  The  relation  may  be 
  merely  a  numerical  one  as  in  the  example  given  above, 
  or  a  chemical  one  as  in  the  case  of  aldehyde, 
  paraldehyde,  and  metaldehyde.
