Explain homopolymer and co-polymers.

1. Homopolymer- When two or more types of simple organic monomers of the same type combine with one another through chemical bond formation gives polymers then these polymers are called homopolymer.

Ex- Polythene is a homopolymer which is prepared of ethene.

2. Co-polymer- When two or more types of simple organic monomers of the different type combine with one another through chemical bond formation gives polymers then these polymers are called co-polymer.

Ex- Styrene Butadiene Rubber is a co-polymer which is prepared from styrene and butadiene.
