PREFACE

It gives us immense pleasure to present this text book on Applied Chemistry-I as per therevised syllabus of Mumbai University which is common to all branches of Engineering. Thisbook is prepared strictly as the revised syllabus prescribed by the Mumbai University.

We have revised this book keeping in mind the academic backgrounds and therequirements of the students of First Year Engineering and Technology. Each chapter beginswith learning objectives and provides clear and succinct knowledge on every topic to thestudents. Since it has been observed that students face difficulty in completing the paper duringexamination because of time constraint, we have tried to reduce the content but we have notcompromised the original concepts and retained the same. Minute details are dealt withprecision in each chapter and different types of numericals are explained in complete details.Solutions to university questions are provided at the end of each topic. We hope that ourendeavour will enable the students to have complete understanding of each and every concept.This book is specifically design to meet the textual requirement of students.

We have also tried to introduce certain modern concepts and recent developments toenrich the knowledge of students. Simple language is used for the benefits of the students.

POLYMERS

Introduction

“In view of the macro-molecular versatility, plastics can be tailor-made for specificuses by selecting the monomer, by combining several materials and by theintroduction of suitable substituents.’’

1·1. PolymenrsThe word “polymer” is derived from two Greek words, Poly (= many) and meros (= parts or

units). A polymer is a large molecule which is formed by repeated linking of small molecules celled“monomers”. For example, the polymer polyethylene is formed by repeated linkages of simple ethylenemolecules which are the monomers :

n n.CH CH CH CH2 2ethylene

2 2polyethylene

b g

The number of repeating units in the chain so formed is called the degree of polymerization.Polymers with a high degree of poly-merisation are called “high polymers” and those with low degreeof polymerisation are called “oligopolymers”. High polymers have very high molecular weights

4 610 to10 and hence are called “macromolecules.”A macromolecule may consist of monomers of identical or different chemical structure and

accordingly they are called homo-polymers and co-polymers (or mixed polymers) respectively.···—A—A—A—A—…homopolymers···—A—B—A—A—B—…copolymers

The monomeric units may combine with each other into a macro-molecule to form polymers oflinear, branched or cross-linked (three dimensional) structures. (Fig. 1.1).

Copolymers may also be linear, branched or cross-linked. In copolymer molecules, the monomersmay be arranged in the chain at random or regularly. Copolymers of the former group are called“statistical” or ‘‘irregular”, whereas those of the latter group are called ‘‘regular”.

Linear copolymers in which the units of each type form fairly long continuous sequences(blocks) are called “block copolymers”.

Fig. 1.1. Linear, branched and cross-linked Polymers. Block-copolymer and Graft copolymer.

Branched copolymers with one kind of monomers, in their main chain and another kind ofmonomers in their side chains are called ‘‘graft copolymers’’.

If the atoms of the same species are present in the main chain, they are called “homochainpolymers”. If the chain is made up of different atoms then they are called “heterochain polymers.”

...—C—C—C—C—...... homochain polymers...—C—C—O—C—C—O—C—C—O...... heterochain polymers

The orientation of monomeric units in a macromolecule can take an orderly or disorderly fashionwith respect to the chain. If the monomers have entered the chain in a, random fashion, it is called an“atactic” polymer. If all the side groups lie on the same side of the chain (cis-arrangement), it is calledan “isotactic” polymer. If the arrangement of side groups is in alternating fashion (trans-arrangement),it is called a “syndiotactic” polymer. Polypropylene chain arrangement is an example of atacticpolymer, natural rubber is isotactic and guttapercha is syndiotactic.

1.2. Classification of Polymers. The capacity of an element to form polymeric compoundsdepends on its position in the periodic table. The elements of I group and other univalent elementsare entirely incapable of forming polymers, because, to form a chain, an element must have at least

two valencies. All other elements are capable of forming homochain,3 or heterochain polymericcompounds, the stability of which depends on the interatomic bond strength.

The bond energies between some like atoms and unlike atoms are given in Table 1.

Table 1. Bond energy between like atoms and unlike atoms

Like atoms (Homochain Unlike atoms (Heterochainpolymers) polymers)

Bond Bond energy Bond Bond energyK cal/mole K cal/mole

C—C 80.0 B—O 119.3S—S 63.0 B—N 104.3P—P 53.0 Si—O 89.3Se—Se 50.0 B—C 89.0Te—Te 49.0 P—O 81.7Si—Si 45.0 C—O 79.0Sb—Sb 42.0 C—N 66.0Ge—Ge 39.2 As—O 64.5As—As 39.0 Al—C 61.6N—N 37.0 C—S 61.5O—O 34.0 Si—S 60.9

C—Si 57.6

It is clear from Table-1 that in case of homochain polymers, C–C bond is the strongest whereasN—N and O—O bonds are the weakest. Thus, the most stable homochain polymers can be producedby carbon whereas O and N cannot form homochain polymers. All the other elements can formhomochain polymers.

Bond energies between the atoms in heterochain compounds are higher than those of manyhomochain compounds. Strongest bonds are formed between B—O, B—N and Si—O. Polymerscomprising of these bonds are very strong and have high melting points.

(1) Organic polymers (Hydrocarbon Molecules)These include-compounds containing, apart from carbon atoms, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen,

sulfur and halogen atoms, even if the oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur is in the back-bone (or main) chain.Organic polymers also include polymeric substances containing other elements in their moleculesprovided the atoms of these elements are not in the main chain and are not connected directly tocarbon atoms.

(4) Tacticity :-

Polymers are classified on the basis of Tacticity (Configuration) Tacticity means arrangement ofside groups on the main chain.

(i) Isotactic - Side groups are all on the same side of the main chain.

(ii) Syndiotactic :- Side groups are in alternating fashion on the main chain.

(iii) Atactic :- Arrangement of side groups are at random around the main chain.

1.3. Types of Polymerization : Three types of polymerization are generally distinguished:(1) Addition or chain polymerization : In addition polymerization, the polymer is formed from

the monomer, without the loss of any material, and the product is an exact multiple of the originalmonomeric molecule.

Application of energy in the form of heat, light, pressure, ionizing radiation or the presence of acatalyst, is usually necessary for initiating the chain polymerization.

In general, addition ploymerization proceeds by the initial formation of some reactive species,such as free radicals or ions and by the addition of the reactive species to another molecule, with the
