Classification of conducting polymers

Answer 1

polymers are classified into 5 types as follows:

A))based on synthesis:

1)addition polymers

2)condensation polymers

B))based on inter molecular forces:

1)fibers

2)elastromers

3)thermoplastics

4)thermosettings

C))from source

1)natural polymers

2)synthetic polymers

D))based on material

1)organic polymer

2)inorganic polymer

E))based on structure

1)linear polymer

2)branched polymer

3)cross linked polymer

F))based on the monomer

1)homo polymer

2)hetero polymer

Answer 2

Conducting polymers can be classified based on their chemical structure into different families, such as polyacetylenes, polyanilines, polythiophenes, and polypyrroles. They can also be classified as either intrinsic (self-doped) or extrinsic (doped) based on their doping mechanism. Additionally, conducting polymers can be classified as organic (carbon-based) or inorganic (metal-based) polymers depending on the composition of the polymer backbone.

Answer 3

There are three type

-Intrinsically conducting

-Extrinsically conducting and

-Co-ordination/ Inorganic conducting polymer.

Answer 4

POly pyrrole, polythiophene,polyaniline,polyacetylene

Answer 5

Polymers may be classified as follows, according to the mechanical Properties.

1) Thermoplasts

2) Thermosets
