Hi Justin
Thank you for your reply.
However, when I am using the grompp command, the topol.tpr file is not being
formed due to a fatal error. This fatal error is the cumulative of ' No
default Ryckaert-Bell.' types for many atoms in the polymer chain.

And as I suggested before, you should investigate which lines are causing complaints to diagnose why grompp is failing.

Also, regarding the comment on the atom types and atom names, I have tried
Google searching to find the difference, but in vain.

An atom name is an arbitrary label. An atom type is a designator that supplies various nonbonded parameters (listed in the [atomtypes] directive of ffnonbonded.itp. The files you posted before seem to define your bonded parameters based on the names present in the coordinate file. This is an incorrect approach. Refer to existing force fields and the manual for examples.
