Nomenclature of Benzene Derivatives
• There are three different ways that two groups can be
attached to a benzene ring, so a prefix—ortho, meta, or
para—can be used to designate the relative position of the
two substituents.
COVALENT ATTACHMENT

molecule that shows a characteristic set of physical and
chemical properties

Thermoplastic Polymers
According to ‘end-use’
Polymer types includes:
1. Plastics
2. Elastomers (or rubbers)
3. Fibers
4. Coatings
5. Adhesives
6. Foams
7. Films
What do the recycling numbers mean?
• reference to what type of plastic the container is made of.
• use in classifying the different types of plastic and it aids
recyclers in the sorting process. Different molecules do
not mix when plastics are recycled.
