ABSTRACT

The aim of this article is to provide a brief presentation of the theoretical basis of the reactions of polymerization. Due to their great diversity, polymers can be classified into several major classifications according to the selected criterium: origin, type of architecture, structure of the patterns, etc. Simple notions, specificities and examples of step-reactions and chain-reactions of polymers are presented. It then deals with the five main techniques leading to the industrial synthesis of polymers with a presentation of the current trends.

Read this article from a comprehensive knowledge base, updated and supplemented with articles reviewed by scientific committees.

 INTRODUCTION

The aim of this dossier is to provide a brief introduction to the theoretical basis of polymerization reactions. The main classifications are defined and simple concepts are explained, both with regard to classic polymerizations and their developments, and to new techniques.

For more details on the implementation of industrial processes, operating conditions and descriptions of polymerization units, please refer to the specialized files listed in this dossier and at [Doc. AM 3 040] .
