Macromolecular Concept
Leading organic chemists such as Emil Fischer and Heinrich Wieland believed that
the measured high molecular weights were only apparent values caused by the aggregation of
small molecules into colloids

Noucovalent bond로 Interactiol
In the 1930s, Marvel and coworkers uncovered some of the earliest evidence to support Staudinger’s revelatory
“Polymer Hypothesis” in their investigation of halogenated alkyl dimethylamines. The authors discovered that during
@
self-quaternarization, both ionic and covalently bonded halides were detected in the products, a finding that
confirmed the formation of linear polymers instead of the previously proposed cyclic dimers.

2) Nomenclature Based on Structure (Non-IUPAC)
: A number of the more common condensation polymers synthesized from two different
monomers have been named by a semisystematic, structure-based nomenclature system
other than the more recent IUPAC system. The name of the polymer is obtained by
following the prefix poly without a space or hyphen with parentheses enclosing the name of
the structural grouping attached to the parent compound. The parent compound is the
particular member of the class of the polymer—the particular ester, amide, urethane, and
so on.

Molecular Structure of Polymers
Types of bonds
The distinctions are not always clear-cut, that is, hydrogen bonds may be considered as the
extreme of dipole interactions. The secondary bonds are generally weaker bonds and are
responsible for many of the bonds between different polymer chains (intermolecular bonds).

3.2.3. Theoretical treatment of linear step polymerization
• On this basis, step polymerization involves random reactions occurring between any two
mutually-reactive molecular species.
• Intrinsically, each of the possible reactions is equally probable and their relative
preponderances depend only upon the relative numbers of each type of molecular species
(i.e. monomer, dimer, trimer, etc.).
• This assumption of equal reactivity is implicit in each of the theoretical treatments of step
polymerization
•

3.2.3.2. Kinetics of Step Polymerization
the assumption of equal reactivity of functional groups simplify the kinetics
the overall rate of reaction as the rate of decrease in the concentration of one or other of the functional
groups, i.e. in general terms for equimolar stoichiometry
c0 /c = N0 /N
These results further substantiate the validity of the principle of equal reactivity of functional
groups

3.3. Non-linear Step Polymerization
• Network polymers produced by step polymerizations were amongst the first types of
synthetic polymers to be commercialized and often are termed resins.
• The polymerizations must be carried out within a mould to produce the required
artefact.
3.3.1.1. Non-linear Step Polymerization:
Formaldehyde-based resins
Phenolic resin is classified into novolac or resol resin based on the pH and
phenol to formaldehyde ratio used in the reaction.
Novolac type resin : prepared under acidic conditions, and with an excess of
phenol compared to formaldehyde, will be formed.
The shelf life and stability of novolac resins are higher compared with those for
resol resin.
However, an additional catalyst is required to cure novolac resins.
Resol type resins : formed under basic conditions when the molar amount of
formaldehyde exceeds that of phenol.
They are thermosetting resins with methylol and hydroxyl group capable of
forming a cross-linked network without the use of additional curing agents.
This, in itself, represents a significant environmental benefit over novolac resins,
since most curing agents used have toxic effects.

The most important are the diglycidy ether prepolymers prepared by the reaction of
excess epichlorohydrin with bisphenol-A in the presence of a base
3.3.1.2. Non-linear Step Polymerization: Epoxy resins
Epoxy resins are characterized by low shrinkage on curing and find use as adhesives,
electrical insulators, surface coatings and matrix materials for fibre-reinforced
composites

3.3.2 Gelation Theory
gelation : an abrupt change of the reacting mixture from a viscous liquid to a solid gel which shows no
tendency to flow
gel point : the point at which the first network molecule is formed in a non-linear polymerization
3.3.2 Gelation Theory
if there are N0 molecules present initially, the total number of functional groups present is N0fav
if at time t there are N molecules present, then the number of functional
groups that have reacted is 2(N0-N) since the number of molecules decreases by
one for each link produced by the reaction together of two functional groups
