S2.4 (AHL) From models to materials

This section builds upon S2.4 From models to materials by extending it to cover condensation polymers. It includes natural examples of polyamides and polysaccharides and man-made examples of polyamides and polyesters. The need for two functional groups present on the monomer(s) that can condense together is stressed and also the reverse hydrolysis reaction is covered.What role do bonding and structure have in the design...
