The notes include the followings: • Definitions and concept of synthetic polymers • Addition polymers • Drawing the repeat unit of an addition polymer, including poly(ethene), poly(propene), poly(chloroethene) and (poly)tetrafluoroethene • Deducing the structure of a monomer from the repeat unit of an addition polymer • Explaining problems in the disposal of addition polymers, including:their inertness and inability to biodegrade and the production of toxic gases when they are burned. • Condensation polymerisation, in which a dicarboxylic acid reacts with a diol, produces a polyester and water • Writing the structural and displayed formula of a polyester, showing the repeat unit, given the formulae of the monomers from which it is formed including the reaction of ethanedioic acid and ethanediol • Learning about biopolyesters
