Condensation Polymers | As & A Level Chemistry 9701 PowerPoint
This PowerPoint presentation delves into the formation and structure of condensation polymers, highlighting reactions between dicarboxylic acids, diols, and diamines, as well as the role of amino acids. It covers key examples like polyesters (e.g., Terylene) and polyamides (e.g., Kevlar, Nylon-6,6), explaining their ester and amide linkages. The presentation also addresses the environmental impact of polymers, comparing non-biodegradable addition polymers with biodegradable condensation polymers, and discusses disposal methods like hydrolysis. This resource is ideal for students studying polymer chemistry and environmental science.
