1. polymeric materials
(1) introduction
elastomers (or rubbers)
polymers
thermoplastics
plastics
thermosetting plastics
(or thermosets)
thermoplastics
can be reheated and formed into new shapes
consist of very long main chains of carbons
covalently bonded together
long molecular chains are bonded to each
other by secondary bonds
thermosetting plastics
set by chemical reaction
cannot be reformed by reheating
consist of a network of carbons covalently
bonded into a thermoset network structure
engineering plastics

(b) functionality of a monomer
functionality number of active bonds in a
monomer
bifunctional : two active bonds for the
polymerization of long chains
ex. ethylene
trifunctional: three active bonds to form a
network polymeric material
ex. phenol C6H5OH

(a) polyethylene
mp : 110 ~ 137oC
clear-to-whitish translucent
thermoplastic material
types of polyethylene
low-density: has a branched-chain structure
high-density: has a straight-chain structure
linear-low-density
(c) polypropylene
mp : 167 ~ 177oC
methyl group substitute every
second carbon atom in carbon
polymer chain
high heat deflection temperature
low density, good chemical resistance,
moisture resistance and heat resistance
good surface hardness and dimensional
stability
applications: housewares, appliances,
packaging, laboratory ware, bottles, etc.
(d) polystyrene
mp : 150 ~ 243oC
phenyl ring present on every
other carbon atom
very inflexible, rigid, and brittle
low processing cost and good dimensional
stability
poor weatherability and easily attacked by
chemicals.
applications: automobile interior parts, dials
and knobs of appliances and housewares
20
(e) polyacrylonitrile
often in the form of fibers
high strength
good resistance to moisture
and solvents
applications: sweaters and blankets
comonomer for SAN and ABS resins.
(f) styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN)
random amorphous copolymer of styrene
and acrylonitrile
better chemical resistance, high heatdeflection temperature, toughness and load
bearing characteristics than polyester alone
applications: automotive instrument lenses,
dash components, knobs, blender and mixer
bowls
21
(g) ABS
ABS : acrylonitrile + butadiene + styrene

fracture of polymers
two extreme modes: brittle or ductile
for thermosetting plastics, primarily brittle
mode
for thermoplastics, depending on temperature:
below Tg primarily brittle mode
above Tg primarily ductile mode
surface energy required to fracture a glassy
polymer is about 1000 times greater than
that would be required for the fracture just
involved simple CC bond breaking
a craze in glassy thermoplastic is formed in
a highly stressed region and consist of
alignment of molecular chains combined
with a high density of interdispersed voids50

(b) opthalmic
eye glasses, contact lenses and intraocular
implants are made of polymers
hydrogel is used to make soft contact lenses
absorbs water and allows snug fit
oxygen permeable made of poly-HEMA
hard lenses made from PMMA not oxygen
permeable
mixed with siloxanylalkyl metacrylate and
metacrylic acid to make permeable and
hydrophilic
intraocular lens are made of PMMA
(c) drug-dilevery
biodegradable polymer polylactic acid
(PLA), polyglycolic acid (PGA)
(d) suture used to close wounds and incisions
nonabsorbable suture : polypropylene, nylon,
polyethylene terephthalaate, polyethylene
absorbable suture : polyglycolic acid
53
(e) orthopaedic
bone cement a structure material to fill the
space between the implant and the bone
PMMA is the primary material used in this
purpose
