Question
Chapter 26, Problem 26.23P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The three
Concept introduction:
In general, polymers follow the same solubility trend as normal compounds, like-dissolves-like. If the intermolecular interactions between polymer molecules and between solvent molecules are similar, the polymer tends to be soluble.
Polymers with side groups capable of forming hydrogen bonds tend to be soluble in water. Polymers with ionic side groups are even more soluble in water because ion-dipole interactions are stronger than hydrogen bonds.
