👉 Copolymers are molecules that contain a repeating unit of one or more monomers, typically consisting of two or more different monomers. Copolymers can be formed by adding a single monomer to another molecule, resulting in a new polymer with a unique structure and properties. Examples of copolymerized polymers include polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polypropylene, which are both made from ethylene and propylene. Copolymers have the potential

copolymerization

👉 Copolymerizations, also known as polymerization reactions, are a type of chemical process that involves the formation of two or more polymers from one reactant. In this process, a monomer (a small molecule) is converted into a larger molecule by adding another monomer to it. In copolymerization, the monomers can be different molecules, and the reaction may involve mixing them together in a solution or aqueous medium. The resulting polymer may have unique properties that make it
