Question on: SS3 Chemistry - Organic Chemistry: Polymers
Which type of polymerization involves the formation of a simple molecule, such as water, as a byproduct during the polymerization process?
Â
Addition Polymerization
Â
Condensation Polymerization
Â
Radical Polymerization
Â
Step-Growth Polymerization
Condensation polymerization involves the formation of a byproduct, such as water, during the polymerization reaction. In this process, two different monomers react with each other, releasing a small molecule (e.g., water or alcohol) as they join to form a polymer chain.
