14.1 On the basis of the structures presented in this chapter, sketch repeat unit structures
for the following polymers:
(a) polychlorotrifluoroethylene, and
(b) poly(vinyl alcohol)

For polypropylene, each repeat unit has three carbons and six hydrogens. Thus,
m=3 ( A C )+ 6 ( A H )

(b) We are now asked to compute the number-average molecular weight. Since the degree of
polymerization is 15,000, so we using Equation :
14.5 Below, molecular weight data for a polytetrafluorothylene material are tabulated.
Compute :
a) the number-averange molecular weight,
b) the weight-averange molecular weight
c) the degree of polymerization
Answer :
(a) From the tabulated data, we are asked to compute Mn, the number-average molecular weight.
This is carried out below.
(b) From the tabulated data, we are asked to compute M w , the weight-average molecular
weight.
Range
10,000-20,000 15,000 0,01 150
20,000-30,000 25,000 0,04 1000
30,000-40,000 35,000 0,11 3850
40,000-50,000 45,000 0,23 10350
50,000-60,000 55,000 0,24 13200
60,000-70,000 65,000 0,18 11700
70,000-80,000 75,000 0,12 9000
80,000-90,000 85,000 0,07 5950
( c ) Now we are asked to compute the degree of polymerization, which is possible using
Equation 14.6. For polytetrafluoroethylene, the repeat unit molecular weight is just which
polymer structure of polytetrafluoroethylene is :
F F
C C
F F
So with we solve with equation :
m=2( A C )+ 4 ( A F )
Mn 49800
DP= = =498
m 100,02
Mn 1,000,000
Dp= = =9333
m 107,15
Thus, there is an average of 9333 of both repeat unit types per molecule.
14.25 The density and associated percent crystallinity for two poly(ethylene terephthalate)
materials are as follows;
In which ρc and ρa are the variables for which solutions are to be found. Since two
values of ρs and C are specified in the problem statement, two equations may be
construscted as follows
ρc ( C1 ρs 1− ρs 1 ) + ρc ρa−C 1 ρ s 1 ρa =0
ρc ( C2 ρs 2− ρs 2 ) + ρc ρa−C 2 ρ s ρa=0
In which
ρs 1 = 2.144 g/cm3
ρs2 = 2.215 g/cm3
C1 = 0.153
C1 = 0.742
Solving the above two equations for ρa and ρc leads to :
