Ziegler-Natta Polymerization
from Professor Dave Explains · host Professor Dave Explains
Everybody is familiar with plastic. But what is the chemical composition of it? Polyethylene and polypropylene, two very common forms of plastic, are polymers of small organic molecules. We figured out how to make these subtances in the middle of the 20th century.
