The reaction that takes place when similar or different monomers are converted to polymers is described under the collective term polymerization.
In order to gain macromolecules, the synthesis of plastics is achieved by technical polymerization reactions.
Due to the resulting molecular chains one also speaks in this case of a chain growth reaction.
Plastic: Based on the monomers Ethylen Polyethylen is created through polimerization.
