 (4) These are formed by addition                        polymerisation.  These are formed by condensation  polymerisation.
 (5) These have usually linear                              structures.Ex. Polyethylene, PVC,                teflon.  These have three dimensional cross      linked  structures. Ex. Bakelite, urea,  formaldehyde, resin.
