Kevlar (Section 30.6A) is a very stiff polymer because its backbone contains many aromatic rings and its polymer chains are extensively hydrogen bonded to each other. Draw a short segment of two Kevlar chains, and indicate how the chains are hydrogen bonded to each other.
When two monomers (X and Y) are polymerized together, a copolymer results. An alternating copolymer is formed when the two monomers X and Y alternate regularly in the polymer chain. Draw the structure of the alternating copolymer formed when the two monomers, CH2 ≡ CCl2 and CH2 = CHC6H5, are polymerized together.
1. Kevlar is a copolymer used in bullet-proof vests. It is formed in a condensation
reaction between the following two monomers:
H2N-
-NH2
НО—С
OH
Sketch a portion of the polymer chain showing several monomer units. Write the
overall equation for the condensation reaction.
