Chapter 15.6, Problem 14P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The four segments of SAN alternating copolymer structure has to be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Polymers:

Monomers combine together to form polymers.  Monomers are the repeating units of small molecules which link together to form polymers and the process is called as polymerization.

Homopolymer: Polymer formed from bonding of identical monomers are called as homopolymer.

Example: [AAAAA]

Copolymer: The polymer formed from two or more different monomers are called as called copolymer.

Example:  [ABABAB]
