Condensation polymers like PET, nylon, and polycarbonate tend to degrade during processing. Examples of this usefulness are described for a simple linear homopolymer to demonstrate the method fundamentals, a condensation polymer to demonstrate its utility in understanding complex spectra with multiple repeating patterns on different mass scales, and a condensation copolymer to demonstrate how it can elegantly and efficiently reveal unexpected phenomena. In this context, a thermosetting network condensation polymer like phenol-formaldehyde may serve as an example for extreme crosslinking, since the 3-D amorphous structure carries well beyond any imaginable melting temperature with the end result of a charred material. |
