Choose from water absorbent and water repellent polymers. Each polymer is blister packed with instructions on back.
A polymer is a high molar-mass molecule with a large number of repeating units. Polymers can be naturally ocurring or synthetic.
Naturally occuring polymers include polysaccharides (starch, chitin and cellulose). Starch and cellulose are both made of glucose molecules. Chitin is found in the exoskeletons of crawfish, shrimp, lobsters and crabs. Chitin is hard and insoluble, while remaining flexible. Man has tried to reproduce these characteristics in the lab but have been unsuccessful. Another naturally occurring polymer is protein. Proteins are chains of amino acids.
Synthetic polymers include plastics like polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene, nylon and polystyrene. PVC is used to make vinyl siding, plumbing pipe and shower curtains. Polypropylene products include plastic cups, packing materials and carpet. Nylon was created as a sythetic replacement for silk.
