Poly(ethene), PE (or Polyethylene) 1 Poly(ethene) or polythene (PE) is produced by the polymerisation of ethene. 2 When ethene gas, under a pressure of 1200 atm is heated to about 200 °C in the presence of traces of oxygen, a soft clear solid called poly(ethene) or polythene (PE) is formed. nCH2RCH2 !: !!(CH2!CH2)n!!

Chemistry Term 3 STPM Chapter 21 Polymers 293 21 3 The poly(ethene) produced by this method (discovered by ICI in 1933) is highly branched. As a result, the polymer chains cannot be closely packed. 4 As a result, the poly(ethene) produced has a low melting/ softening point (about 105 °C) and a low density (0.92 g cm–3), and is easily deformed and softens in boiling water. 5 This form of poly(ethene) is called low density poly(ethene), LDPE, and is used generally for making plastic bag or sheets for wrapping, squeeze bottles and electrical insulation materials. 6 Another method for the manufacture of poly(ethene) was developed by Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta in 1953 by using a catalyst called the Ziegler-Natta catalyst. This allows the polymerisation to take place at 1 atm and 60 °C. 7 The poly(ethane) produced by this method is made up mostly of linear polymeric chains. This allows the chains to be more closely packed to form orderly structures. 8 As a result, the poly(ethene) produced is more crystalline, has higher density (0.96 g cm–3) and higher melting/softening point (130 °C to 140 °C). This is known as high density poly(ethene), HDPE. 9 HDPE is stronger and harder than LDPE and is used mainly for molding more rigid articles such as bottles and milk crates.

Exam Tips Exam Tips As the chains are of different lengths and with different degree of branching, poly (ethene) does not melt at a fixed temperature. Instead, it melts over a range of temperature as the interchain attractive forces are of different strength.
Chemistry Term 3 STPM Chapter 21 Polymers 294 21 2 Due to the presence of the methyl side groups, the polymeric chains produced can have one of the following structures: (a) !CH!CH2!CH!CH2!CH!CH2!CH!CH2! & & & & CH3 CH3 CH3 CH3 In this form, all the CH3 groups are on the same side of the chain. This is called an isotactic polymer. (b) CH3 CH3 & & !CH!CH2!CH!CH2!CH!CH2!CH!CH2! & & CH3 CH3 In this form, the position of the CH3 groups alternates above and below the chain. This is called syndiotactic polymer. (c) CH3 & !CH!CH2!CH!CH2!CH!CH2!CH!CH2! & & & CH3 CH3 CH3 The third form of polypropene, the arrangement of the CH3 groups is random. This is called an atactic polymer. Atactic poly(propene) is rubbery, amorphous and relatively weak. 3 Free radical polymerisation of propene always produces the atactic form. However, by using Ziegler-Natta catalyst, stereospecific poly(propene) can be formed. 4 In the presence of Ziegler-Natta catalyst, lower temperature and pressure can be used for the polymerisation process. 5 The presence of CH3 groups increases the intermolecular van der Waals forces between the polymer chains, but makes the chain more difficult to pack. Hence, it has low density (0.90 g cm–3) but higher melting/softening point (140 °C). 6 Polypropene is used to make ropes, moulds, bottles, kitchenware, carpets, battery containers and for apparatus that needs to be steam sterilised.

(c) Draw a repeating unit of neoprene. 21.5 Classification of Polymers Generally, polymers can be classified under three broad categories: thermoplastics, thermosetting plastics and elastomers. Thermoplastics 1 A thermoplastic, also known as a thermosoftening plastic is a polymer that becomes soft (and thus moldable) when heated and hardens when cooled. 2 The process of softening and hardening can be repeated over many times. 3 Thermoplastics are linear polymers with no cross link between the polymer chains. The chains are held together by weak van der Waals forces only. Heating Cooling 4 On heating, the chains drift further apart and soften. On cooling, the reverse occurs. 5 Examples of thermoplastics are poly(ethene), polyvinyl chloride, (PVC), poly(propene), polystyrene and polybutadiene. Thermosetting Plastics 1 A thermosetting plastic, also known as a thermoset is a polymer that once set cannot be soften through heating. It is like cement, the process cannot be reversed once it is harden. 2 There are extensive cross links (via strong covalent bonds) between the polymer chains during the polymerisation process. These cross links prevent the polymer chains from moving apart when heated. 3 When heated strongly, the polymer decomposes. 4 An example is bakelite, a copolymer between methanal and phenol. 2014/P3/Q15

Elastomers 1 An elastomer is a polymer that can be deformed or stretched when a force is applied to it. However, it reverts back to its original shape or length when the force is removed. In other words, an elastomer has elasticity properties. 2 In the raw state, the polymer chains are coiled and twisted with a few cross links between the chains. Stretched Force released 3 A certain amount of cross links has to be present, otherwise the chains will slide over one another and will not go back to its original state. 4 However, too many cross links will end up with a thermosetting plastic. Natural Rubber 1 Natural rubber is an elastomer. That is, it lengthens when stretched. When the force is released, it reverts back to its original length. 2 The monomer of natural rubber is 2-methylbuta-1,3-diene or isoprene.

CRRC !! !! !! !! CH2 CH3 CH2 H n 6 The trans-form has the following structure: CRRC !! !! !! !! CH2 CH3 CH2 H n 7 The cis-form is derived from the Hevea brasiliensis trees, while the trans-form is derived from the gutta-percha trees. 8 The trans-form is non-elastic and is of little use. It is used mainly for the manufacture of golf balls and the outer covering of underwater cables. The cis-form on the other hand is elastic and is much more useful. 9 The cis-form can be extended to about 10 times its length and returned to its original size. This is because in its raw form, rubber is a tangle of polymeric chains which are coiled and twisted. The chains straighten when stretched, and spring back to the original form when the force is released. Isoprene: Polyisoprene: n cis(polyisoprene): n trans(polyisoprene): n Rubber is an elastomer.
Chemistry Term 3 STPM Chapter 21 Polymers 300 21 Random coils Stretched Force released Stretched chains 10 However, in the raw state, there is no cross-link between the polymer chains. It becomes soft and sticky when hot, hard and brittle when cold. At the same time, it is sensitive to oxidising agent such as ozone in the atmosphere. As a result, its use is limited. 11 In 1838, an American, Charles Goodyear discovered that these defects could be overcome by heating raw rubber with sulphur which forms disulphide cross-links between polymeric chains.

Example 21.2 Explain why rubber is an excellent material to manufacture surgical gloves. Solution Natural rubber is impermeable to water. Hence, body fluids and blood cannot penetrate the glove and infect the medical personnel. Vulcanisation of rubber The disulphide bridge Uses of vulcanised rubber
Chemistry Term 3 STPM Chapter 21 Polymers 301 21 Production of Rubber from Latex 1 Latex is an aqueous emulsion of negatively charged rubber molecules. Negative charged protein membrane Rubber molecule 2 The negative charge on the rubber molecules causes them to repel one another. 3 When acids such as methanoic (formic) acid or ethanoic (acetic) acid is added to latex, the H+ from the acids neutralises the negative charge on the rubber molecules. The molecules then approach one another and coagulate to form a solid mass. 4 The solid mass is removed from the coagulating tank. They are pressed into sheets by passing them through rollers to remove water. 5 The rubber sheets are then smoked and dried. Example 21.3 Raw rubber is sometimes exported in the form of latex. Ammonia is added to the latex to prevent it from coagulating. Explain the chemistry behind this method. Solution Latex is an aqueous suspension of negative charged rubber particles. Addition of ammonia, which supplies the negative charged OH– , further prevents the rubber particles from coming together.

CHRCH2 + CH2RCH!CHRCH2 !![!CH!CH2!CH2!CHRCH!CH2!]!! 6 SBR can be vulcanised in the same way as natural rubber. It is used mainly to make car tyres, footwears and carpet backing. Uses of Polymers 1 Polymers have become part and parcel of our lives that it is difficult to visualise the world without polymers. 2 We use polymers in almost every aspect of our lives. Plastics for containers, food wrappers, pipes, plastic bottles, toys, carpets, footwear, artificial leather (PVC), electrical insulators, non-stick pans, artificial silk, synthetic fabrics, ropes, bullet-proof vests, vehicle tyres, packaging materials and gloves. The list can go on and on. Effects of Polymer Disposal on the Environment 1 Most synthetic polymers (commonly called plastics) are nonbiodegradable. They cannot be decomposed by bacteria or other forms of decomposers. When discarded, they stay in the earth for decades if not centuries. 2 These polymers release chemicals that are hazardous both to humans and the environment. 3 Burning of polymers in dump sites also releases toxic chemicals (such as carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide and dioxin) into the atmosphere causing acid rain and air pollution. 4 Indiscriminate dumping of polymers into rivers and seas causes water pollution and blockage of the water-ways causing floods. 5 Some of these polymers are ingested by sea-birds, fish and other aquatic animals causing death due to chocking. 6 One way to overcome these problems is to invent biodegradable polymers that can be decomposed by bacteria or water.

Chemistry Term 3 STPM Chapter 21 Polymers 303 21 SUMMARY SUMMARY 1 Polymers are long-chain molecules produced by linking smaller molecules called monomers. 2 Addition polymers are polymers that are formed by the linking of monomers without the elimination of other smaller molecules. 3 Examples of addition polymers are poly (ethene), poly(styrene), PVC, poly(propene). 4 Monomers for addition polymers have CRC bonds in their molecules. 5 Condensation polymers are polymers formed by linking monomers with the elimination of other smaller molecules. 6 Examples of condensation polymers are polyamides (nylons) and polyesters (terylene). 7 The monomer for natural rubber is isoprene or 2-methylbuta-1,3-diene. 8 Vulcanisation is the process where the rubber chains are linked by disulphide bonds. 9 Thermoplastics, sometimes called thermosoftening plastics are polymers that become soft on heating, and harden when cool. This process of softening and hardening can be repeated over and over again. 10 Thermosetting plastics or thermosets are threedimensional polymers consisting of extensive cross links which are formed during the polymerisation process. They harden on cooling and cannot be softened by heating. 11 Elastomers are polymers which stretch when pulled, and return to their original length when the force is released.

(b) (i) Ozone is formed in the stratosphere via the following processes: Molecular oxygen absorbs ultra violet radiation from the Sun and splits into oxygen atoms: O2(g) 9: 2[O](g) The oxygen atom combines with another oxygen molecule to produce ozone: O2(g) + [O](g) 9: O3(g) The ozone formed is in turn destroyed by absorbing ultra-violet radiation from the Sun and decomposes into oxygen molecule and oxygen atom: O3(g) 9: O2(g) + [O](g) The oxygen atom formed then combines with another oxygen molecule to regenerate ozone: O2(g) + [O](g) 9: O3(g) The whole cycle is repeated. There is thus a dynamic equilibrium between the production and destruction of ozone: 3O2 N 2O3 Both the forward and reverse reactions involve absorption of ultra-violet radiation from the Sun. (ii) Freon, which is chemically inert, when released into the atmosphere stays unaffected and drifts into the stratosphere where ultra-violet radiation cleavage the C9Cl bond to produce chlorine free radicals: CCl2F2 9: Cl9CCF2 + Cl. The chlorine free radical then undergoes the following reactions: O3 + C. l 9: O2 + C. lO C . lO + O 9: C . l + O2 The overall reaction is the destruction of ozone O3 + [O] 9: 2O2 Each chlorine free radical is able to ‘destroy’ 100,000 ozone molecules before it is removed by other reactions. (iii) Ozone is a greenhouse gas. It keeps the Earth warm by absorbing the heat reflected from the Earth surface and prevent it from re-radiating into space.
