Abstract: This e-book provides an accessible and structured introduction to petrochemical polymers, covering essential topics such as monomers, polymers, polymerization mechanisms, classification of plastics, and molecular structure. Aimed at students and newcomers to the field, it combines theoretical concepts with practical applications in industries like packaging, textiles, medicine, and construction. It includes diagrams, exercises, and real-world examples to reinforce learning and understanding of the subject.
Description: Petrochemical Polymer: Introduction is a foundational e-book that explores the essential concepts, structures, and applications of polymers derived from petrochemical sources. Written by Nor Farihah binti Adnan, Mohd Azim bin Md Janis, and Zaihasrah binti Masron, this resource is designed primarily for students, educators, and beginners in polymer science and chemical engineering. The book offers a comprehensive introduction to the world of polymers, beginning with the basic definitions of monomers and polymers, and advancing to the classification of plastics, polymer structures, and types of polymerization processes. Readers will learn how different molecular architectures—such as homopolymers, copolymers, and tacticity—affect the physical and chemical properties of polymeric materials. Through detailed explanations and visual illustrations, the e-book explains critical processes like addition and condensation polymerization and provides practical guidance on calculating polymer molecular weights and degrees of polymerization. It also explores the significance of crystallinity, amorphous regions, and the mechanical behavior of materials.
