1 Example of addition polymers

2 Synthetic and Biological Polymers Polymers: Macromolecules formed by the covalent attachment of a set of small molecules termed monomers. Polymers are classified as: (1)Man-made or synthetic polymers that are synthesized in the laboratory; (2)Biological polymer that are found in nature. Synthetic polymers: nylon, poly-ethylene, poly-styrene Biological polymers: DNA, proteins, carbohydrates

3 Methods for making polymers Addition polymerization and condensation polymerization Addition polymerization: monomers react to form a polymer without net loss of atoms. Most common form: free radical chain reaction of ethylenes n monomersone polymer molecule
