They can be made from several different things: Butene Copolymer Copolymer - HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) Ethylene Vinyl Acetate HDPE - Reclaim LLDPE (Linear Low Density Polyethylene) -Hexene Copolymer Homopolymer - HDPE Homopolymer - LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) Homopolymer - PP (Polypropylene) PP-IM (Impact) LDPE-Reclaim LLDPE-OC (Octene Copolymer) LDPE Copolymer For more information go to http://www.townsendpolymer.com
a polymer which is obtained by the polmerisation of only one type of monomer is known as a homopolymer eg:teflon, polyetheleyne etc...if it is constituted of more than one type of monomer( simpler units) then the polymer is known as copolymereg:dacron, buna s etc
hetero
Homopolypropylene is made up of only propylene monomer units, while copolypropylene contains a mixture of propylene and other comonomer monomer units. This difference in composition results in variations in properties such as melting point, density, and chemical resistance between homo and copolypropylene materials. Copolypropylene is often used to improve impact resistance and flexibility compared to homopolypropylene.
Compound
Polystyrene is formed from only one monomer - styrene.
polyhydroxybutyrate-polyhydroxyvalerateits a biodegradable copolymer
Is a copolymer resistant to paint
It is a copolymer of polyglycolic acid and polylactic acid
Triclosan/Copolymer
prepropylene random copolymer kamran manzoor answer
When two or more different monomers are allowed to polymerize together, the product formed is called a copolymer and the process is called copolymerization. Thus, a copolymer contains a large number of units of each monomer used in the same polymeric chain.
