cellulose
For example cellulose.
starch is an alpha-glucose, Cellulose is a beta-glucose molecule
This is a condensation polymerization.
a. hydrolysis. This process involves breaking the polymer chains by adding water molecules, which results in the separation of monomers from the polymer.
Novolac is a linear or branched polymer formed by the condensation reaction of phenol with an aldehyde. Resole is a three-dimensional, crosslinked polymer formed by the condensation reaction of a phenol with an excess of aldehyde in the presence of a base catalyst. Both novolac and resole structures contain aromatic rings linked by methylene bridges.
cellulose
For example cellulose.
A polymer composed of beta-glucose monomers is cellulose.
A polymer that is degradable by bacteria is called a bio-degradable Polymer. Biodegradable polymers are used in medical devices to avoid a second operation to remove them. Poly-Beta-HydroxyButyrate-CO-Beta-HydroxyValerate is an example of Bio-degradable Polymer.
A polymer composed of beta-glucose monomers is cellulose.
a small molecule, such as water or an alcohol. This process involves the repeated condensation reaction of monomers, leading to the formation of a polymer chain and the release of the small molecule as a byproduct.

condensation
Condensation polymers
The polymerization of polylactic acid is a condensation polymerization process. It occurs when the lactic acid monomers undergo a condensation reaction, releasing water as a byproduct to form the polymer chain.
The pair of functional groups that can be part of a condensation reaction to form a polymer chain is hydroxyl (-OH) and carboxyl (-COOH) groups. The hydroxyl group provides the -OH to form water during the condensation reaction, linking monomers together to form the polymer chain.
condensation is when two monomers join and water is released and hydrolysis is the breakdown of large polymer with the addition of water
