POLYMERS
POLYMER Poly = many Mer = units • Polymers are large molecules that has many units bonded together • The individual units made up the polymer are called monomers
Natural Polymers Amylose (in starch) DNA
Natural Polymers (Cont’d) Protein
Types of Synthetic Polymers • Addition polymer: monomers with double bonds are joined together through addition • Examples: • polyethene; plastic bags, plastic water bottles, tys • polystyrene; styrene and Styrofoam cups, insulation, packaging • polyvinylchloride (PVC, vinyl); building construction materials, sewage pipes, medical equipment
• Condensation polymer: monomers are joined by formation of esters or amide • Need a carboxylic acid or a diamide • Examples: • Nylon – tires, synthetic fibres used to make rope and clothing • Polyester (Dacron. TM) – fibres used to make fabric for clothing and surgery
Type 1: Addition polymers • Made by addition reaction of monomers that have double bonds or triple bonds
Properties of Addition Polymers • Stable as the double bond converted to single bond • Flexible, stretchable and mouldable thanks to lots of weak, intermolecular forces that hold the long polymer chain together
Plastic bag- How it’s made? ? ? • Made from a polymer • Polyethylene • Take 1 million years to break down/ degrade a plastic bag
Another Man-made Addition Polymer • The super absorbent polymer is Polyacrylic acid
Super absorbent Polymer (Cont) • Absorb up to 1, 000 g of water per gram of polymer
Applications of Nylon • Invented by Dupont • Nylon stands for New York & London • Tear resistant • Water-proof Used in making: • parachutes • stocking • sleeping bags • tent, sail • cooking utensils
Silicone as polymer Silicone based baking Traditional metal baking pan Silicone breast implant Silicone structure
POLYMER TIME! Making slime • Pour Elmer Glue to the mark in a plastic cup • Add equal volume of water to dissolve the glue • Add desire food colorant • Stir • Add prepared Borax solution DROPWISE until the slime is somewhat thicken • Don’t add too much Borax
