Teflon can be made from tetrafluoroethylene by means of a free radical polymerization. In the reaction, termination occurs only by combination and not by disproportionation. Explain this observation.
What kinds of ions govern alkylation and polymerization reactions and how they are initiated?
Concerning the polymers produced from monomers containing a single C=C double bond, the following generalizations are apparent: (a) The polymers produced are almost always unsubstituted (i.e. ethylene) or have one substituent on the double bond or two substituents on the same carbon atom of the double bond. Monomers containing one or more substituents on each carbon of the double bond seldom polymerize. (b) Most chain polymerizations are carried out by radical initiation; relatively few are produced by ionic initiation. Why? Explain the reasons for these generalizations
What is molecular shape/conformation of polymer? What is the main characteristic ofpolymer affected by molecular shape?
