Functional Monomer Polymerization
Description

Polycondensation is a step-growth polymerization process in which complementary monomers containing two or more reactive functional groups (such as –OH, –COOH, –NH₂) react with each other to form long-chain polymers, with each linkage formation accompanied by the release of a small molecule by-product (commonly water, alcohol, or ammonia).
