Poly(vinyl alcohol), a hydrophilic polymer used in aqueous adhesives, is made by polymerizing vinyl acetate and then hydrolyzing the ester linkages. We have seen that basic hydrolysis destroys the Dacron polymer. Poly(vinyl acetate) is converted to poly(vinyl alcohol) by a basic hydrolysis of the ester groups. Why doesn’t the hydrolysis destroy the poly(vinyl alcohol)polymer?
I keep thinking the plastic sulfur is S8 or an Sx polymer. I'm leaning more towards the polymer of sulfur since when you heat the sulfur, it breaks its cyclic bond and makes these long chains but I'm completely confused.

certain polymers can be broken down by the body. Resorbable sutures can be made using polycaprolactone. Polycaprolactone is made by a ring-opening polymerization of caprolactone (shown below) using an alkoxide such as sodium ethoxide. Given the monomer and alkoxide shown below, draw a dimer (two repeat units) of the growing polymer chain with the correct end groups.
