1
New cards
what is condensation polymerisation
method for synthesising molecules
2
New cards
do condensation reactions produce by-product
yes, usually water
3
New cards
how are polyesters formed
formed by condensation polymerisation. combining monomers that contain carboxyl and hydroxyl functional group
4
New cards
what is the general reaction for the production of polyesters
dicarboxylic acid monomer + dihydroxyl monomer = polyester + water
5
New cards
define polyamides
formed when dicarboxylic monomers and diamine molecules react
6
New cards
what is nylon
polyamide
used to make hard, rigid plastics.
group of polyamides in which the monomers contain linear carbon chains
