What two monomers are needed to prepare each polymer?
Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) has received much recent attention because the lactic acid monomer [CH3CH(OH)COOH] from which it is made can be obtained from carbohydrates rather than petroleum. This makes PLA a more “environmentally friendly” polyester. Draw the structure of PLA
Kodel is a condensation polymer made from terphthalic acid and 1,4-cyclohexandethanol. Write the structure of the resulting polymer.
