    #4 The Synthesis of Organic Polymers CHM2123‚ Section C October 21‚ 2014 Introduction: Organic polymers are macromolecules that are composed of smaller molecules called monomers. There are two main groups of polymers: natural polymers and unnatural (synthetic) polymers. Natural polymers include proteins such as cellulose and starch and are a necessity for our existence. On the other hand‚ synthetic polymers such as the polycarbonate in our lab goggles are

    temperature of different polymers 8.1 Compare and comment on the results obtained. LDPE has the lowest average melting temperature (103.6°C) out of the 4 polymers. It is because LDPE is a linear polymer that has a branched structure which is able to expel the applied heat faster through the “branches” and melt faster. HPDE has the second lowest average melting temperature (139.5°C) out of the 4 polymers. Unlike LDPE‚ HDPE does not have a branched structure and the HPDE polymer chains are able to pack

    Project 1: Polymer Ball Vivian Kim General Chemistry 2045L Introduction Our assignment in this project was to create a bouncy ball for a company using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)‚ polyvinyl acetate solid and sodium borate‚ by varying the ration of ingredients and to determine the best recipe for our bouncy ball. The company chose the materials because of their odorless and nontoxic properties. PVA is a water-soluble synthetic polymer and has adhesive properties

    consists of polyhydroxyalkanoate‚ which contain two monomers 3-hydroxybutyrate and 3-hydroxyvalerate. Bacteria growing in tanks with a carbon-based food source in which the polymer is then isolated and purified presently produce the polymer industrially. Biotechnology has been recently used to economically attempt produce the polymer using genetic engineering technique. The advantages of this process are faster growth‚ better yields‚ easier recovery‚ and production of less extra waste biomass and cheaper

    cotton plant . The fiber is most of the time spun into thread and used to make a soft but strong textile. Cotton is a valuable crop because only about 10% of the raw weight is lost in processing. Once natural wax‚ protein‚ and other unnecessary things are removed‚ what’s left is a natural polymer of pure cellulose. Cellulose is the structural component of the cell walls of green plants‚ many forms of algae and the oomycetes. Some species of bacteria separate it to form biofilms. Cellulose is the
