Carbon to Carbon – Single, Double & Triple Bonds

April 28, 2014January 28, 2021 SurfguppyLeave a commentPolymers

We know from the periodic table that a carbon atom has 4 valence electrons in the outermost shell.   In order for the atom to be more stable, the outermost shell must be filled up. Carbon follows the octet rule Read More …

Condensation Polymerization

April 22, 2014January 28, 2021 SurfguppyLeave a commentPolymers

Condensation polymers are any kind of polymers formed through a condensation reaction where molecules join together–losing small molecules as by-products such as water or methanol.

Addition Polymerization

April 22, 2014January 28, 2021 SurfguppyLeave a commentPolymers

In addition polymerization, all the original atoms present in the monomers are retained in the polymer product.

Types of Plastics and their Classification

April 22, 2014December 6, 2014 SurfguppyLeave a commentPolymers

Plastic classifications is a system established to allow consumers to properly recycle and dispose of different types of plastics. Manufactures follow a coding system and place an SPI code on each plastic product, and are usually printed or modeled into the bottom.

What is Polymerization?

Polymerization through the use of a catalyst

Polymerization is simply the process of putting together monomers (single molecules), to become a long chain of molecules (called polymers) with the use of a catalyst.
