Learning Outcomes

Condensation and Addition Polymerisation

Synthetic Polyamides

Polymers in the Human Body: Proteins

Protein Structure

Polymers in the Human Body: Nucleic Acids

Lesson Summary

This module covers different kinds of polymerisation, synthetic polyamides and polymers in the human body. We investigate condensation and addition polymerisation, the properties of nylon and kevler, and their various applications. Proteins and nucleic acids and their significant roles in body functions are also explained.

Useful Polymers

Designing Useful Polymers

Polymer Deductions

This module discusses useful polymers, such as terylene and poly(lactic acid), and their properties. You'll also learn about designing polymers to meet the needs of a specific application and the steps of predicting the type of polymerisation reaction used to produce a polymer.

Advanced Chemistry: Polymerisation - Course Assessment

This free online advanced chemistry course covers natural and synthetic polymers and the polymerisation process.

Advanced Chemistry: Polymerisation

Polymers are a diverse and essential class of natural and synthetic materials. This advanced chemistry course examines polymers and the polymerisation process. We discuss condensation polymerisation, synthetic polyamides and polymers in the human body like proteins and nucleic acids. We also explore synthesis and lay out characteristics of useful polymers, the types of polymerisation reaction and the repeating unit of a polymer prediction.
