Polymers are high molecular mass substances consisting of large number of repeating structural units derived from simple molecules. The polymers formed from one type of monomers are called homopolymers and those formed from two or more different monomers are called copolymers. Depending upon the molecular forces between monomers, polymers may be classified as elastomers, fibers, thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers. The polymers may be formed simply by addition of monomers called addition polymers or by combination of two or more monomers by elimination of simple molecules, called condensation polymers. Name condensation polymer whose one monomer is methanal. |

| 18. |
Polymers are macro molecules formed by union of monomers.Distinguish between thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers with example |
|
Answer» SOLUTION :Thermoplastics are polymers which becomes soft on HEATING and hard on cooling and this PROCESS can be repeated many times e.g., PVC, polythene Thermosetting polymers become infusible and hard on heating due to the formation of cross LINKS. They cannot be remelted or remoulded e.g, bakelite. |
