Molecular Recognition (Supramolecular Chemistry) in organic chemistry deals with the "lock and key " mechanisms that form new molecules. However, little is known of this subject when moleules go beyond 1500 daltons (g/mole) for example macromolecules of polyolefins (polyethylene, polypropylene), thermoplastic polyesters and polyamides (nylon). It is understood that pre-directional H bonding is the mechanism of molecular recognition of macromolecules. Question: What is the immediate and post manifestation of inducing molecular recognition to condensation polymers and ring opening polymerization polymers like thermoplastic polyesters (PET ), and Nylon 66, 6 etc. (polyamides)?

Based on the answer to my question my follow-up question refers to processing. How does hydrogen bonding interactions affect the processing temperatures of these
Why does hydrogen bonding affect thermal stabiltiy (thermo-oxidative stability) and affect degradation of the macromolecule. What is the mechanism of this interaction?
