Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Determine the given set of polymers can be achieved best via cationic addition or anionic addition.

Concept introduction:

Polymerization is a reaction when monomer molecules are reacted to form a polymer chain.  Polymerization can occur via three ways,

  • Cationic polymerization
  • Radical polymerization
  • Anionic polymerization

Cationic polymerization is the polymerization of the monomer (vinyl) with strong electron donating groups.  In this method cationic initiator transfers charge to the monomer which becomes active and further propagates with another molecules.

Anionic polymerization is the polymerization of the monomer (vinyl) with strong electron attracting groups (electronegative groups).  In this polymerization carbanion is the active species.

Radical polymerization is a type of polymerization where the reaction occurs by successive addition of free-radicals.

To identify : To identify whether the given polymer can be achieved best via cationic addition or anionic addition
