polymer 0.0 / 5 ? ChemistrypolymerIGCSECIE Created by: StephennnnCreated on: 25-02-19 07:21 very large molecules made up of repeating units. Eg plastics & proteins Macromolecule 1 of 8 small molecules that join together to form long chains called polymers monomer 2 of 8 process of joining monomer together to form a polymer, where no other substance is formed. addition 3 of 8 used to make bowls & plastic bags polyethene 4 of 8 used to make ropes, clothes & nets nylon 5 of 8 formed by the monomers of carboxycylic acids and amines (compounds with an -NH2 functional group) have an amide linkage eg nylon polyamide 6 of 8 Formed by two types of monomer: carboxycilic acids & alcohols. Has an ester linkage eg terylene polyester 7 of 8 type of reaction where two molecules join together and a small molecule is eliminated condensation 8 of 8
