 Polymerization reactions

Polymerization reactions are chemical processes in which small molecules called monomers link together to form larger, more complex structures known as polymers. This process is fundamental in the creation of a wide variety of materials, including plastics, rubbers, fibers, and more. There are two primary types of polymerization reactions: 1. **Addition Polymerization (Chain-Growth Polymerization)**: In this type, the monomers contain double bonds or other reactive functional groups that can react to form long chains.
