Polymerization is the process of the formation of large macromolecules from one or more monomers. There are two type of polymerization reactions:

  1. Addition polymerization, in which the monomer undergoing polymerization do not lose any atoms in the formation of a polymer.
  2. Condensation polymerization, in which the monomer undergoing polymerization loses few atoms, such as water in the formation of a polymer.
