Wood is a natural polymer in the same manner that polymers of ethylene are joined to form polyethylene, glucose monomers polymerize in wood to form cellulose polymers.
The synthesis of poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO) montmorillonite composite by direct melt intercalation of polymer powders in layered silicates is studied by using XRD, IR, DSC and SEM, etc.
Synthetic resin is a high-molecular polymer produced artificially through the polymerization of low-molecular monomers such as ethylene, propylene and chloroethylene etc.
