Isobutylene, CH2=C(CH3)2, is used to prepare cold-flow rubber. Draw a structure for the addition polymer formed from this alkene.
Organic polymers have a similar composition to that of common carbohydrates (predominantly composed of Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms). By principle, some carbohydrates readily react with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor, explain why this principle doesn’t spontaneously work on organic polymer wastes such as Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and Polystyrene (PS)?
