NANO MTL Lc1
-
polymerization
free radical (R) :heavy_plus_sign: monomer :arrow_right: double bond form single bond w R (initiation) :heavy_plus_sign: monomer :arrow_right: dimer (propagation)
initiator - newer method similar but allowing more control involves the Ziegler Natta catalyst especially w respect to polymer branching

-
why
:pen: easy to process / shape into parts (low melting point)
:pen: relatively low cost material
:pen: lightweight products (low density)
:pen: not brittle (high elongation)
:pen: resistance to corrosion
:pen: excellent electrical resistivity

ethane gas :heavy_plus_sign: polymerization :arrow_right: ethylene mer :arrow_right: polyethylene chain
