The synthesis and decompositon of synthetic substances
14 important questions on The synthesis and decompositon of synthetic substances
What is a synthesis reaction?
What is the base material for polyethylene and how is it made?
What happens during a polymerisation reaction?
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
What is a monomer?
How was crude oil formed?
Why will a synthetic polymer, made from crude oil, on combustion cause the greenhouse-effect to increase?
What is a bio based synthetic polymer?
Is a bio based synthetic polymer sustainable?
What happens with the pellets in factories?
How is the production of plastic bags done?
- from the head of a so-clled extruder, a soft mass i the shape of a tube with a very thin wall protrudes
- thsi tube is now blown up with air, forming a gigantic plastic tube of a very thin film.
- Once it has cooled down, the ow formed plastic film is rolled up
Waht is are thermo softening polymers?
What is a thermosetting polymer?
What are bio plastics?
In which three ways can bio plastic be made?
- Certain micro-organisms can produce bio plasics. A lot of research is done into the formation of bio plastics with the aid of bateria and yeasts
- As a base material natural polyers cnan be used, such as starcha nd cellulose. From these natural polymers synthetic polymers that are bio degradable in nature have already been developed.
