What is Anionic Polymerization? An In-Depth Analysis
What is Anionic Polymerization? Anionic polymerization is a form of addition polymerization or chain-growth polymerization that includes the polymerization of monomers initiated with anions of vinyl monomers with strong electromagnetic groups. This polymerization process is mainly utilized to produce thermoplastic […]
What is Condensation Polymerization? | The Definitive Guide
What is Condensation Polymerization? Condensation polymerization is a form of step-growth polymerization where molecules combine, losing small molecules as by-products such as water or methanol. It produces linear polymers from bifunctional monomers. i.e., compounds with two reactive end groups. The […]
