Concept Introduction:
Polymer is a very large molecule that is formed by repetitive bonding together of many smaller molecules. The small repeating units are known as monomer.
Addition polymer is the one in which the monomers simply add together with no other products formed apart from the polymer. The repeating unit in addition polymer often exceeds 100,000 and sometimes can exceed even a million.
