Question

Write the name and structure of the monomer of each of the following polymers :
(i)Neoprene
(ii) Buna-S
(iii) Teflon

Answer 1

(i)Neoprene : Monomer is Chorophene
`CH_(2)=C(CI)-CH=CH_(2)`
(ii) Buna-S Monomers are 1,3- butadiene and styrene
`CH_(2)=CH-CH=CH_(2)and C_(6)H_(5)-CH=CH_(2)`
(iii) Teflon : Monomer is Tetrafluoroethene
`CF_(2)=CF_(2)`
