No nitrile rubber is a synthetic rubber polymer
Which polymer exists in both synthetic and natural forms?
Polyethylene is a polymer that exists in both synthetic forms, widely used in plastic manufacturing, and natural forms, found in plants and trees as a waxy coating.
Why are synthetic materials made?
Because you can design a synthetic polymer to exactly meet your needs. You can modify a natural polymer sometimes if it's not what you need, but at that point is it really a "natural" polymer? Take cellulose--a perfectly serviceable natural polymer, they build millions of homes every year out of it. But what if you need a polymer you can see through? Cellulose won't work for you there unless you dissolve it in acetic acid (cellulose acetate) or nitric acid (cellulose nitrate). By the time you're done, you have a polymer that's no longer really "natural."

Is spider webs natural polymers or a synthetic polymer?

What are natural and synthetic polymers?
A natural polymer would be rubber which is obtained from nature. A synthetic polymer would be polybutadiene which behaves like rubber.
Is slime a natural or synthetic polymer?
it is a synthetic polymer. depends on how you made it
Is basketball polymer natural or synthetic?
neither
Is rayon a synthetic polymer?
Not truly. Neither is it a natural fibre. It is manufactured from cellulose, which is a naturally occurring polymer. It's regarded as "semi-synthetic", or "artificial".
Is starch a synthetic or natural polymer?
natural, starches are a form of sugar, potatos have a form of starch. I'm sure there are also some synthetic ones as well.
What is acrylic paint Mae of?
a natural or synthetic pigment in an acrylic polymer emulsion
How is the polymer classified?
For example thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers, natural and synthetic polymers.
