Condensation polymers
Polyesters
Polyesters are made from either:
- 1 monomer containing a COOH group and an OH group
- or 2 monomers, one with 2 COOH groups- a dicarboxylic acid and one with 2 OH groups a diol
The OH and COOH groups on the monomers react to form an ester bond between the two molecules and water. Continuous bonds between the monomers…
