Polymer are made up of small units called monomer.

Polymer are of two types homopolymer and copolymer

Homo polymer

  • Made of only one type of monomer say Eg : polythene [ -(C2H4)n- ]
  • It is made of number of monomer units of C2H4 units
  • The bond formed between them is covalent bonding
  • Eg : Polythene , Polyvinyl Chloride ( PVC), Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)

Copolymer

  • Made of diff type of monomer say Eg; Nylon 6
  • It is made of adipic acid and hexamethyldiamine
  • The type of bonding is covalent also
  • Eg ; Nylon, Nylon 66 ,Nylon 6 10
