Describe the types of polymerization - 1.addition and 2.condensation

Addition polymerization involves the addition of monomers without the elimination of any small molecules.
Addition polymerization can be initiated by heat, light, or chemical catalysts.
Addition polymerization can produce polymers with high molecular weight and high purity.
Examples of addition polymers include polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyvinyl chloride.

Condensation polymerization involves the elimination of small molecules, such as water, during polymerization. Condensation
polymerization can produce polymers with low molecular weight and high polydispersity.
Examples of condensation polymers include nylon, polyester, and polyurethane.
Condensation polymerization can be carried out using di- or polyfunctional monomers.
Condensation polymerization can be carried out in solution or in the solid state.
The properties of condensation polymers can be affected by the reaction conditions, such as temperature and pressure.
The stereochemistry of the monomers can affect the properties of the resulting polymer.
The structure of the monomers can affect the properties of the resulting polymer.
The purity of the monomers can affect the properties of the resulting polymer.
Polymerization can be a complex process that requires careful control of the reaction conditions.
Polymerization can be used to create a wide range of materials with unique properties.
