  2. Poly(p-phenylene) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(p-phenylene)

    The structure of the repeating unit of PPP Space-filling model of a short section of PPP. Poly(p-phenylene) (PPP) is made of repeating p-phenylene units, which act as the precursor to a conducting polymer of the rigid-rod polymer family. The synthesis of PPP has proven challenging, but has been accomplished through excess polycondensation with ...

  3. Poly(p-phenylene oxide) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(p-phenylene_oxide)

    A printer cartridge made of PPE and polystyrene; it is an example of a product which requires good dimensional stability and accuracy to fit.. PPE blends are used for structural parts, electronics, household and automotive items that depend on high heat resistance, dimensional stability and accuracy.

  4. Ring-opening polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring-opening_polymerization

    The newly formed nucleophile will then attack the atom X in another monomer molecule, and the sequence would repeat until the polymer is formed. [20] Anionic ring-opening polymerizations (AROP) involve nucleophilic reagents as initiators. Monomers with a three-member ring structure - such as epoxides, aziridines, and episulfides - undergo ...

  5. Urea-formaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urea-formaldehyde

    Urea-formaldehyde (UF), also known as urea-methanal, so named for its common synthesis pathway and overall structure, [1] is a nontransparent thermosetting resin or polymer. It is produced from urea and formaldehyde. These resins are used in adhesives, plywood, particle board, medium-density fibreboard (MDF), and molded objects.

  6. Polyhydroxyalkanoates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhydroxyalkanoates

    Structure of poly-(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate , a polyhydroxyalkanoate Chemical structures of P3HB, PHV and their copolymer PHBV. Polyhydroxyalkanoates or PHAs are polyesters produced in nature by numerous microorganisms, including through bacterial fermentation of sugars or lipids. [1]

  7. Polyphosphazene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphosphazene

    General structure of polyphosphazenes. Gray spheres represent any organic or inorganic group. Polyphosphazenes include a wide range of hybrid inorganic-organic polymers with a number of different skeletal architectures with the backbone P-N-P-N-P-N-. [1] In nearly all of these materials two organic side groups are attached to each phosphorus ...

  8. Polymerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymerization

    In polymer chemistry, polymerization (American English), or polymerisation (British English), is a process of reacting monomer molecules together in a chemical reaction to form polymer chains or three-dimensional networks. [1] [2] [3] There are many forms of polymerization [4] and different systems exist to categorize them.

  9. Polycarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycarbonate

    Polycarbonates (PC) are a group of thermoplastic polymers containing carbonate groups in their chemical structures. Polycarbonates used in engineering are strong, tough materials, and some grades are optically transparent. They are easily worked, molded, and thermoformed. Because of these properties, polycarbonates find many applications.
