Question
this was the experiment. so i need the asnwer of this question.
What type of polymerization (step-growth or chain-growth) is occurring during the synthesis of these two polyesters? Explain.
POLYESTERS In this experiment, both linear and cross-linked polyesters will be prepared through condensation polymerizations. The linear polyester is prepared through the reaction of phthalic anhydride and ethylene glycol (a di This linear polyester is isometric with Dacron, which is prepared from terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. Dacron and the linear polyester made in this experiment are both thermoplastics. O. OCH2CH2 Ethylene Glycol - Phthalic anhydride Linear polyester If more than two functional groups are present in one of the monomers, the polymer chains can be linked to one another (cross-linked) to form a three-dimensional network. Such structures are usually more rigid than linear structures and are useful in making paints and coatings. They may be classified as thermosetting plastics. The cross-linked polyester Glyptal will be made in this experiment from phthalic anhydride and glycerol (a triol).
