Chapter 15 – Polymers
The chapter Polymers explains large molecules formed by the repeated joining of small units called monomers. It introduces different types of polymers based on their structure and mode of polymerization, such as addition polymers and condensation polymers. The chapter also classifies polymers into natural, synthetic, and semi-synthetic polymers, along with thermoplastic and thermosetting plastics.
Students learn about important examples like polythene, nylon, polyester, and rubber, along with their preparation and properties. The chapter also highlights the uses of polymers in daily life, industries, and environmental concerns related to plastic waste. Understanding polymers is important for Class 12 board exams and competitive exams like NEET and JEE.
