Interpretation:
The structure of Kodel which is formed from 1, 4-dihydroxymethylcyclohexane and terephthalic acid should be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
On the basis of type of polymers, polymerization reaction can be two types; addition polymerization and condensation polymerization. The addition polymerization occurs between monomer units with unsaturated bonds between carbon atoms. For example; polymerization of
Condensation polymerization occurs with those monomers which have some
