Addition Polymer is formed when double bonds are broken in the individual molecules and these rebond to another molecule so that long chains are formed, an example is poly(phenylethene).
Condensation Polymer is formed when molecules are joined together with the elimination of some other compound (usually water), examples are nylon and polyester.
Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) are among the most common types of synthetic organic polymers, which are often found in households and is a thermoplastic made from the monomer ethylene.
Polypropylene (PP) also known as polypropene, is a thermoplastic polymer used in packaging and labeling materials, textiles, stationery, plastic parts and reusable containers of various types, laboratory equipment, loudspeakers, automotive components, and polymer banknotes.
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is the third-most widely produced plastic, after polyethylene and polypropylene, and is used in construction because it is cheaper and stronger than more traditional alternatives such as copper or ductile iron.
Polystyrene (PS) is an aromatic polymer made from the monomer styrene, a liquid petrochemical, and is used in disposable cutlery, plastic models, CD and DVD cases, and smoke detector housings.
Nylon is a family of synthetic polymers known generically as polyamides, and the amide backbone present in nylon causes it to be more hydrophilic, which is why nylon clothing absorbs water.
Teflon (Polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE) is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene, is hydrophobic: neither water nor water-containing substances can interact with PTFE, and is used as a non-stick coating for pans and other cookware because it has very low friction with other compounds and is very non-reactive so it is often used in containers and pipework for reactive and corrosive chemicals.
