ABS is the polymerisation of Acrylonitrite, Butadiene and Styrene monomers. Chemically, this thermoplastic family is called 'terpolymers' as they involve combination of three monomers to form a single material which draws from the properties of all three.
What else can I help you with?
How are monomer and polymer related to one and many?
A monomer is a single unit that can join together with other monomers to form a polymer. Think of a monomer as the "one" building block, and a polymer as the "many" units created by linking multiple monomers together through chemical bonds.
Is glue a polymer?
Yes, glue is a polymer.
What is the definition of the word monomer?
The definition of the word monomer is molecule that just might bind chemically to other molecules to create something called a polymer. This term is usually used in the field of biology.
Polyethylene is a polymer made from ethane molecules that have been joined together what is ethane in this polymer?
In polyethylene, ethane molecules are converted into ethylene molecules through a process called cracking. Ethylene molecules are then polymerized to form the long chains of polyethylene. Ethane serves as the starting material for the production of ethylene, which is the building block of polyethylene.
What is the basic chemical building block of natural rubber obtained from trees?
Rubber itself is an addition polymer of a diene (a hydrocarbon molecule containing twodouble bonds) called isoprene or 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene with the following formula: CH2=C(CH3)-CH=CH2 Like polysaccharides and proteins, rubber forms in nature through a complex set of reactions. Nevertheless, we can view it as polyisoprene, an addition polymer of isoprene. After polymerisation, double bonds remain in the polymeric chain as follows: -[CH2-C(CH3)=CH-CH2]n-
What is the subunit that serves as the building block of a polymer?
Monomer.
Is biomolecule the building block of carbohydrates?
No. A biomolecule is many building blocks bonded together to form a polymer. The building blocks of any polymer are called monomers. The monomer of a carbohydrate is a monosaccharide, which forms the polymer polysaccharide.
What is the smallest unit of a polymer called?
The smallest unit of a polymer is called a monomer. Monomers are the repeating units that link together to form a polymer chain through chemical bonds.
What has the author F R Colley written?
F. R. Colley has written: 'Some polymer blends and block copolymers'
