Polymers that produce water as a byproduct during their formation are known as _____.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Condensation polymers form through a chemical reaction that produces water as a byproduct. This is different from addition polymers, which do not produce any byproducts during their formation. Copolymers are polymers that are made from two or more different monomers, while thermopolymers are polymers that have high heat resistance. Elastomers are polymers that have elastic properties.
