Listen "#37 - Addition Polymers"
Episode Synopsis
Learn about addition polymers: formed by joining monomers with C=C bonds, such as ethene to polyethene. Polymers are non-biodegradable, causing environmental issues like landfill buildup and ocean pollution. Disposing involves burning, which releases harmful gases, or recycling, which is labour-intensive but eco-friendly.
