A natural polymer would be rubber which is obtained from nature. A synthetic polymer would be polybutadiene which behaves like rubber.
All paints are polymers. All acrylics are synthetic (man made). All marketing brochures apply the most desirable buzz words to whatever they are selling, no matter how contorted the supporting logic. Caveat Emptor.
Not truly. Neither is it a natural fibre. It is manufactured from cellulose, which is a naturally occurring polymer. It's regarded as "semi-synthetic", or "artificial".
Rubber is classified into natural and synthetic. Natural rubber, is made from the latex of trees such as Heavea Brasiliensis. As it is from natural source, it contains proteins and enzymes. The extractable proteins (EP) can cause allergy if it is in direct contact with skin for a prolonged period of time. To avoid this, the products are made from synthetic rubber like polyisoprene and the products made from synthetic rubber is called Latex Free
Advantages of Latex PaintAdvantages of Enamel PaintLatex paint is much easier to clean. Most marks will come right off with soap and water or a basic household cleaner.Enamel paint is able to withstand much more damage than latex paint.Internet source:url: http://www.ehow.com/facts_4814106_difference-between-enamel-latex-paint.html
well, the difference is analytical was the first type and its aim was to have and image on one page with different views of it. Synthetic cubism was mainly made of other bits of things e.g. wallpaper and tobacco papers. it was call synthetic because it wasn't just made of paint
Synthetic polymers are cheaper than natural polymers. Natural polymers are also less plentiful.
Natural polymers will degrade over time.... man-made polymers are not biodegradable - and need to be processed.
For example thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers, natural and synthetic polymers.
Rubber is a natural polymers with elastic and plastic type behavior. It is found in nature and extracted from trees. PET (soda bottles) Polyethylene Terephthalate is a synthetic polymer and not found in nature.
Also natural polymers exist.
Natural polymer: shellac, amber, natural rubber, cellulose Synthetic polymers: synthetic rubber, Bakelite, neoprene, nylon, PVC, polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, silicone, etc.
no, both natural and synthetic rubber are polymers
No a cellulose is a natural polymer
semi-synthetic polymers are obtained from natural polymers by subjecting them to some chemical processes. eg: vulcanised rubber.
is a spider web a polymer
Synthetic polymers contain linkages which are present in natural polymers also , for example nylon (a synthetic polymer) contains pep-tide (also called amide) linkage and proteins also contain the same linkage .. considering that protein is a naturally occurring polymer Btw , not sure if this is the only similarity .. :D
