Refractory interstellar grains acquire tarry polymeric coatings in dense protostellar molecular clouds. Collisions between polymer-coated grains lead to the formation of micron sized grain clumps that are subsequently expelled into the diffuse interstellar medium. Such grains could contain the building blocks of life such as amino acids in their interiors protected from dissociative ultraviolet radiation.
