1 Polymers What s a polymer? Poly many mer repeat unt repeat unt Polyethylene (PE) l repeat unt l l Polyvnyl chlorde (PV) 3 Polypropylene (PP) 3 repeat unt 3

2 Ancent Polymer story Orgnally many natural polymers were used Wood Rubber otton Wool Leather Slk Oldest known uses of Modern Polymers Rubber balls used by Incas Noah used ptch (a natural polymer) for the ark as had all ancent marners!

3 Polymer omposton Most polymers are hydrocarbons.e. made up of and (we also recognze S- slcones ) Saturated hydrocarbons Each carbon bonded to four other atoms n 2n+2

4

5 Unsaturated ydrocarbons Double & trple bonds relatvely reactve can form new bonds Double bond ethylene or ethene - n 2n 4-bonds, but only 3 atoms bound to s Trple bond acetylene or ethyne - n 2n-2

6 Isomersm Isomersm two compounds wth same chemcal formula can have qute dfferent structures Ex: 8 18 n-octane = methyl-4-ethyl pentane (sooctane) 3 ( 2 )

22 Polymer rystallnty Ex: polyethylene unt cell rystals must contan the polymer chans n some way han folded structure

23 Thermoplastcs vs. Thermosets Thermoplastcs: -- lttle crosslnkng -- ductle -- soften w/heatng -- polyethylene polypropylene polycarbonate polystyrene T moble lqud Thermosets: -- large crosslnkng (10 to 50% of mers) -- hard and brttle -- do NOT soften w/heatng -- vulcanzed rubber, epoxes, polyester resn, phenolc resn crystallne sold vscous lqud allster, rubber Fg tough plastc partally crystallne sold Molecular weght T m T g

24 Polymer Addtves Improve mechancal propertes, processablty, durablty, etc. Fllers Added to mprove tensle strength & abrason resstance, toughness & decrease cost ex: carbon black, slca gel, wood flour, glass, lmestone, talc, etc. Plastczers Added to reduce the glass transton temperature T g commonly added to PV - otherwse t s brttle

25 Stablzers Antoxdants UV protectants Polymer Addtves Lubrcants Added to allow easer processng sldes through des easer ex: Na stearate olorants Dyes or pgments Flame Retardants l/f & B

26 Processng of Plastcs Thermoplastc can be reversbly cooled & reheated,.e. recycled heat tll soft, shape as desred, then cool ex: polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, etc. Thermoset when heated forms a network degrades (not melts) when heated mold the prepolymer then allow further reacton ex: urethane, epoxy

27 Polymer Types: Elastomers Elastomers rubber rosslnked materals Natural rubber Synthetc rubber and thermoplastc elastomers SBR- styrene-butadene rubber styrene butadene Slcone rubber
