Activity 3.11 - Where can I find the polymer?

• On the basis of knowledge of polymer properties, the students should be able to deduce their application or vice versa, considering this application, they should be able to find a suitable polymer. Hence, the students should be able to find the corresponding polymer to a product and vice-versa.

• Literature, internet, notes to the preceeding activities, worksheets.

Instruction:

Match the corresponding polymer and its application or product. Write the names of the polymers into the boxes bellow the corresponding product:

Polymethymetacrylate, polyisoprene, polystyrene, polyethylentereftalate, polyethylene, polyvinylchloride, melaminoplastics, Nylon or Silon

polyethylene polystyrene polyisoprene

polyvinylchloride polymethylmetakrylate polyethylentereftalate

Nylon or Silon melaminoplastics
