  1. Chapter 11 Unsaturated Hydrocarbons 11.4 Polymers of Alkenes

  2. Polymers Polymers are • large, long-chain molecules. • found in nature, including cellulose in plants, starches in food, proteins, and DNA in the body. • also synthetic such as polyethylene and polystyrene, Teflon, and nylon. • have small repeating units called monomers. • can be made from reaction of small alkenes.

  3. Common Synthetic Polymers

  4. Common Synthetic Polymers

  5. Common Synthetic Polymers

  6. Polymerization In polymerization, small repeating units called monomersjoin to form a long chain polymer. monomer unit repeats n
