What else can I help you with?
Are polymers renewable or nonrenewable?
Polymers can be both depending upon which ones you are asking about. Polymer simply means "a chain of identical molecules linked together". Nonrenewable polymers would be plastics made from crude oil; renewable polymers would be cellulose and lignin in tree trunks.
Is polythene made from crude oil?
Yes, polythene, also known as polyethylene, is made from crude oil through a process called polymerization. Crude oil is refined to obtain ethylene monomers, which are then polymerized to form long chains of polyethylene molecules, creating the plastic material.
What is another name for petroleum?
Petrol. actually its oil.
How many gallons of crude are in 1 barrel of crude?
1 barrel of crude oil equals 42 US gallons of crude oil.
When crude oil is pumped out of the ground is there anything put in the ground to replace it?
In some cases, secondary or enhanced oil recovery techniques may be employed where materials like water, gas, or polymers are injected into the reservoir to help maintain pressure and displace oil. However, not all oil wells use this method and naturally occurring pressure in the reservoir can also help in oil extraction.
Is glue made from crude oil?
Yes, some types of glue are made from petroleum-based products derived from crude oil, such as synthetic adhesives. These adhesives are made by processing and refining crude oil to create polymers that can then be used in glue formulations.
Is crude oil the raw material for synthetic fibers?
No, crude oil is not the raw material for synthetic fibers. Synthetic fibers are typically made from petrochemicals derived from crude oil, but the crude oil itself is not directly used in the production of synthetic fibers. The petrochemicals extracted from crude oil are processed to create polymers, which are then spun into fibers to make synthetic materials.
How is crude oil made into polymers?
It undergoes a system called undergoing, and is exposed to high heat, for a long time, then cooled into plastic.
What is the same about all the compounds in crude oil?
Either Hydrocarbons, monomers,plastics or polymers
What is the connection between monomers and crude oil?
Crude oil is a mixture of hydrocarbons that can be used to produce monomers, which are small molecules that can be linked together to form polymers. Monomers derived from crude oil are used in the production of various synthetic materials like plastics and adhesives.
Which is the costliest product from crude oil?
plastic is made from crude oil.
What is the name of a factory where crude oil is made?
Crude oil is not "made". "Crude oil" is the name giving to the raw form of oil that is pumped from the ground.
Where does poleyester come from how is it made?
Polyester is a synthetic fiber made from petrochemicals, primarily derived from crude oil. It is produced by a process called polymerization, which involves the combination of chemicals to create long chains of molecules known as polymers. These polymers are then spun into fibers that can be woven into fabric.
Is gasoline an oil?
Gasoline is processed from crude oil. It is not oil but it is from oil. Diesel is a type of oil and it is also made from crude.
Are polymers renewable or nonrenewable?
Polymers can be both depending upon which ones you are asking about. Polymer simply means "a chain of identical molecules linked together". Nonrenewable polymers would be plastics made from crude oil; renewable polymers would be cellulose and lignin in tree trunks.
Does lipstick contain crude oil?
Yes it is made of crude oil :).
Are aspirin made from crude oil?
yes using phenol, a compound that is derived from crude oil.
