On topological aspects of silicate network using M-polynomial

Abstract

M-polynomial is introduced as a graph polynomial to re-cover closed formulas of degree based topological indices by using some suitable operators. These topological indices have a predicting ability about the properties of organic molecules. Silicate network (phyllosilicates) belonging to an important group of minerals that includes talc, micas, serpentine, clay, and chlorite minerals. These minerals have much importance in the chemical industry. The aim of this paper is to explore the silicate network through M-polynomial and some degree-based topological indices. Results are also elaborated by plotting with graphs.
