Concept introduction:
Polymer may contain one or more than one functional group in its structure. There are two types of polymerization, addition polymerization and condensation polymerization.
The polymer formed by the simple addition reaction of monomers without the generation of by-product is known as addition polymer and this reaction is called as addition polymerization. It is a chain growth polymerization process.
Condensation polymerization is the process for the formation of
