Polymer science revolves around the study of macromolecules known as polymers, which are formed by linking together repeating units called monomers. Understanding the relationship between polymers and monomers is fundamental to grasping the diverse properties and applications of these materials.
Additionally, we'll delve into the nomenclature of polymers, which involves the systematic naming conventions used to describe their structure and composition. Clear and standardized nomenclature ensures effective communication within the scientific community and facilitates the classification of polymers based on their chemical structure, properties, and applications.
polymers include the familiar plastic and rubber materials, many of them are organic compounds that are chemically based on carbon ,hydrogen , and other nonmetallic elements , furthermore , they have very large molecular structure. these materials typically have low densities and maybe extremely flexible.
Polymers play a very important role in human life. Our body is made of lot of polymers, e.g. Proteins, enzymes, etc. Other naturally occurring polymers like wood, rubber, leather and silk are have wide application. Now a day synthetic polymer like useful plastics, rubbers and fiber materials are synthesized. presentation includes introduction classification and preparation methods. Polymers play a very important role in human life. Our body is made of lot of polymers, e.g. Proteins, enzymes, etc. Other naturally occurring polymers like wood, rubber, leather and silk are have wide application. Now a day synthetic polymer like useful plastics, rubbers and fiber materials are synthesized. Leo Baekeland patented the first totally synthetic polymer called Bakelite (1910). Bakelite is a versatile, durable material prepared from low-cost materials phenol and formaldehyde and was the most important synthetic polymer material. In the 1920s Hermann Staudinger showed that polymers were high-molecular-weight compounds held together by normal covalent bonds.
The suffix in polymer ‘mer’ is originated from Greek word meros – which means part. The word polymer is thus coined to mean material consisting of many parts or mers. A macromolecule having high molecular mass (103-107u) and generally not a well-defined structure or molecular weight. The macromolecules formed by joining of repeating structural units on a large scale. The repeating structural units are simple and reactive molecules linked to each other by covalent bonds. This process of formation of polymers from respective monomers is called polymerization. Most of the polymers are basically organic compounds, however they can be inorganic (e.g. silicones based on Si-O network).

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. What is a polymer?
• A long molecule made up from lots of small
molecules called monomers.

5. Definition of Polymer
• A polymer ( Greek poly-, "many" + -mer, "part") is a large
molecule, or macromolecule, composed of many repeated
subunits.
• Due to their broad range of properties,both synthetic and
natural polymers play essential and ubiquitous roles in everyday
life.
• Polymers range from familiar synthetic plastics such as
polystyrene to natural biopolymers such as DNA and proteins
that are fundamental to biological structure and function.
• Polymers, both natural and synthetic, are created via
polymerization of many small molecules, known as monomers.
• Their consequently large molecular mass, relative to small
molecule compounds, produces unique physical properties
including toughness, viscoelasticity, and a tendency to form
glasses and semicrystalline structures rather than crystals.
6. Common Examples of Polymers
• Polymers are of two types: naturally occurring and
synthetic or man made.
• Natural polymeric materials such as hemp, shellac,
amber, wool, silk, and natural rubber have been used
for centuries. A variety of other natural polymers exist,
such as cellulose, which is the main constituent of
wood and paper.
• The list of synthetic polymers, roughly in order of
worldwide demand, includes polyethylene,
polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride,
synthetic rubber, phenol formaldehyde resin (or
Bakelite), neoprene, nylon, polyacrylonitrile, PVB,
silicone, and many more. More than 330 million tons
of these polymers are made every year (2015).
7. • Most commonly, the continuously linked backbone of a
polymer used for the preparation of plastics consists
mainly of carbon atoms.
• A simple example is polyethylene ('polythene' in British
English), whose repeating unit is based on ethylene
monomer.
• Many other structures do exist; for example, elements
such as silicon form familiar materials such as silicones,
examples being Silly Putty and waterproof plumbing
sealant.
• Oxygen is also commonly present in polymer
backbones, such as those of polyethylene glycol,
polysaccharides (in glycosidic bonds), and DNA (in
phosphodiester bonds)

Polymers – Molecular Shape
Molecular Shape (or Conformation) – chain
bending and twisting are possible by rotation
of carbon atoms around their chain bonds
– note: not necessary to break chain bonds
to alter molecular shape

4.5, Callister &
Rethwisch 3e.
– C-C bonds are typically 109° (tetrahedral, sp3 carbon)
10. Molecular structure of Polymers-
Physical properties of polymers depend
not only on their molecular weight/shape,
but also on the difference in the chain
structure.
Four main structures
• Linear polymers
• Branched polymers
• Crosslinked polymers
• Network polymers
11. polymers in which the mer units are connected end-
to-end along the whole length of the chain
These types of polymers are often quite flexible
• Van der waal’s forces and H-bonding are the two
main types of interactions between chains
• Some examples – polyethylene, teflon, PVC,
polypropylene
1.Linear polymers
12. 2.Branched polymers
• Polymer chains can be like branches:
• Or the fibers may aligned parallel, as in fibers and some
plastic sheets.
• This leads to inability of chains to pack very closely
together
• These branches are usually a result of side-reactions
during the polymerization of the main chain
13. 3.Crosslinked polymers
• Molecular structure
– adjacent chains attached via covalent bonds
• Carried out during polymerization or by a non-reversible reaction
after synthesis (referred to as crosslinking)
• Materials often behave very differently from linear polymers
• Many “rubbery” polymers are crosslinked to modify their mechanical
properties; in that case it is often called vulcanization
• Generally, amorphous polymers are weak and cross-linking adds
strength: vulcanized rubber is polyisoprene with sulphur cross-links:
14. 4.Network polymers
– polymers that are “trifunctional” instead of bifunctional
– There are three points on the mer that can react
– This leads to three-dimensional connectivity of the polymer
backbone
• Highly crosslinked polymers can also be classified as network
polymers
• Examples: epoxies, phenol-formaldehyde polymers

• Covalent chain configurations and strength:

POLYMER MICROSTRUCTURE
16. Polymerization:- Process of forming polymer.
Linear Polymer:- Polymer which is obtained
by simply adding monomers together to
form long chain.
Copolymer:- Polymer which is obtained by
different types of monomers.
Degree of Polymerization, DP :-
It is ratio of molecular weight of polymer to
molecular weight of single monomer.
17. Types of polymers:-
1.Thermoplastics
• No cross links between chains.
• Weak attractive forces between chains broken by
warming.
• Change shape - can be remoulded.
• Weak forces reform in new shape when cold.
• E.g. Polyethylene ,PVC, Polystyrene
23. Condensation Polymerization
• Some of the original monomer’s materials are shed
(condensed out) during polymerization process
• Process is conducted in the presence of a catalyst
• Water, CO2 are commonly condensed out but other
compounds can be emitted including HCN or other acids
Water is “Condensed out” during
polymerization of Nylon
26. 2. Injection molding: Polymer is melted in chamber &
then the molten polymer is forced under pressure
into the die
– thermoplastic & some thermosets
– High speed production
27.
28. 3. Extrusion: An extruder is a device that uses a large
screw and heating coils to melt a polymer, compress it, &
force it into a mold.
