How are rubber tires, granulated sugar,
and wool similar? They are all made up of
polymers!
Polymers are long molecules that are
made up many repeating parts, like a chain
with many chain links. Small changes
in these repeating units, the links of the
chain, are what create such different
materials. This illustrates a common theme
in chemistry: Small changes in a molecule’s
structure can result in big changes in the
properties of a substance made up of that
molecule.
There are two general types of polymers:
natural polymers and synthetic polymers.
A very important example of a natural
polymer is deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA.
DNA stores all the biological information
about a living thing. So, polymers are
essential for living things!
Synthetic polymers are made by humans
using natural raw materials including oil,
coal, natural gas, minerals, and plants.
