Question

Distinguish between chain growth and step growth

polymer.​

Answer 1

Step-Growth

• All molecules present (monomer, oligomer, polymer) can react with any other molecule.

• Monomers exist throughout the reaction, but large quantities of monomers are consumed early in the reaction.

Chain-Growth

• During propagation, only monomers react to the “active site” at the end of the growing chain.
• Monomers exist throughout the reaction; its concentration decreases steadily with time.
