Properties of Polymers
Properties are determined by the structure of the molecules and depends on:
type(s) of monomer(s) usedchain lengthshape of the chainnumber and type of cross-linking

Stress - Strain Behaviors
Tensile Strength - the amount of pulling force placed upon a material before it breaks
Abrasion Resistance - toughness of the material against scraping, scuffing or scarring
Puncture Resistance - ability of a material to keep moving objects from perforating the surface

Environmental Issues: Concerns:
Polymers are made from petroleum and so the problems associated with the acquisition, transport and refining of petroleum products apply to these as well.
Petroleum is a non-renewable resource Most polymers are not biodegradable.
Burning and heating during cooking of polymers may release toxic chemicals into the atmosphere. Improper disposal of materials can present a hazard to animals (6 pack bindings)
Last a long time when disposed of in a landfill, or during ocean dumping.

Environmental Issues:
Advantages:
Polymers can be easily reused and recycled.
They can be used to create numerous unique and useful materials (plastics) some of which have uses for which there is no natural substitute.
Chemically inactive, materials stored in plastic are not damaged by their contact with the plastic.
