Polyolefins and Acrylics
This chapter focuses on polymers, primarily hydrocarbons, made from monomers that contain a carbon–carbon double bond through which the polymer is made by addition polymerization. Chemical structures with effects of heat aging, common stabilizers, manufacturers, and trade names along with typical end uses of the plastics are included besides extensive tabular and graphical, physical, mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties before and after heat exposure. Plastics included in this section are many types of polyethylene, polypropylene, polymethylpentene, polyvinyl chloride, cyclic olefin copolymer, and polyacrylics.
