Polymerisation

🔹 1. What is Addition Polymerisation? Addition polymerisation is a type of polymerisation in which unsaturated monomers (usually alkenes) join together without the elimination of any small molecule. ➡️ Key Condition: 🔹 2. Examples of Addition Polymers ✅ Poly(ethene) (commonly known as Polythene) Equation:  n CH₂=CH₂ → –[CH₂–CH₂]–ₙ ✅ Poly(chloroethene) or PVC (Polyvinyl chloride) Equation: […]
