2 POLYMERS Polymers are large, long-chain molecules. found in nature, including cellulose in plants, starches in food, proteins, and DNA in the body. also synthetic such as polyethylene and polystyrene, Teflon, and nylon. have small repeating units called monomers. can be made from reaction of small alkenes. 2 The Academic Support Daytona State College (Science 106, Page 2 of 25

19 POLYMERIZATION An alkene (monomer) can add to another molecule like itself to form a chain (polymer). Three methods: Cationic, a carbocation intermediate Free radical Anionic, a carbanion intermediate (rare) The Academic Support Daytona State College (Science 106, Page 19 of 25

20 CATIONIC POLYMERIZATION The Academic Support Daytona State College (Science 106, Page 20 of 25

21 TERMINATION STEP OF CATIONIC POLYMERIZATION The chain growth ends when a proton is abstracted by the weak base of the acid used to initiate the reaction. The loss of a hydrogen forms an alkene and ends the chain growth so this is a termination step. The Academic Support Daytona State College (Science 106, Page 21 of 25

23 RADICAL POLYMERIZATION In the presence of an initiator such as peroxide, free-radical polymerization occurs. The Academic Support Daytona State College (Science 106, Page 23 of 25

24 ANIONIC POLYMERIZATION For an alkene to gain electrons, strong electronwithdrawing groups such as nitro, cyano, or carbonyl must be attached to the carbons in the double bond. The Academic Support Daytona State College (Science 106, Page 24 of 25
