Is ethylene glycol a polymer?
no, but polyethylene glycol is.
What are polyethene molecules made of?
Polyethylene is a polymer of ethylene and it has carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What is the polymer of PVC?
The monomer of Polyvinylchloride (PVC) is vinyl chloride!! which is simply a hydrogen atom replaced by a chlorine atom in ethylene (monomer for polyethylene) i.e CH2=CHCl. Hope this helps.
What is an example of a two carbon molecule?
There are many two carbon molecules but the most simple one is ethylene (C2H4)
Is olefin a natural fiber?
no, "Olefin is a manufactured fiber in which the fiber-forming substance is any long-chain synthetic polymer composed of ethylene Propylene or other olefin units". (Kaldolph, 2010)
Which one is not a polymer of ethylene?
decene
Is polymer grade ethylene same as the polyethylene?
No, it's not the same thing. Ethylene is a gas used to produce polyethylene (solid). "Polymer grade" is just a purity label for ethylene gas, means that this ethylene is pure enough to be used in polyethylene (or other polymer) production.
What is ep polymer?
Ethylene Propylene
Is ethylene glycol a polymer?
no, but polyethylene glycol is.
What is the difference between solid polymer and liquid polymer?
One is solid, one is liquid.A polymer is just a large molecule (macromolecule) made up of a chain of repeating structural units (monomers), and a liquid one would just be a liquid polymer. Any major differences would depend entirely on the specific polymer.
What are polyethylene molecules made of?
Polyethylene is a polymer of ethylene and it has carbon and hydrogen atoms.
What are polyethene molecules made of?
Polyethylene is a polymer of ethylene and it has carbon and hydrogen atoms.
Is teflon plastic?
Yes it is a thermoplastic polymer PTFE - poly tetra fluoro ethylene.
What is made from polythyrene?
i think epoxy surfboards are. nevermind, that's polystyrene...
Is polystyrene or polyethylene stronger?
No, both are different. Polystyrene is a polymer of styrene (C6H5CH=CH2) whereas polyethylene is a polymer of ethylene (CH2=CH2).
Anhydride with ethylene glycol versus phthalic anhydride with glycerol?
You get a polymer! When you have ethylene glycol react with phtalic anhydride in a basic sollution such as NaOH(aq) you'll get a linear polymer. When you have glycerol react with phtalic anhydride in the same way you'll get a crosslinked polymer. The important difference between glycerol and ethylene glycol is the amount of OH groups, and as we all know, the OH groups usually the group that reacts - particularly in the creation of polymers. So in this case your crosslinked polymer will be the glycerol as it has 3 OH groups. One in each end, allowing the molycule to connect with other molecules and create polymers, and one in the middle (connected to the 2nd Carbon Atom) allowing it to react with other polymers. I hope that sort of answers your question
Is polythene a gas?
Polyethylene (polythene) is a waxy solid polymer formed from ethylene gas monomer under high temperature and pressures.
