Atactic polymers are technologically very important. (6 words)

This example is quite general in that many polymers of economic importance are atactic glass formers. (16 words)

A polymer that lacks any regular arrangement in the position of its alkyl substituents (R) is called atactic. (18 words)

The two materials have very different properties because the irregular structure of the atactic version makes it impossible for the polymer chains to stack in a regular fashion. (28 words)

If a special catalyst is used in its synthesis it is possible to obtain the syndiotactic version of this polymer, but most industrial polystyrene produced is atactic. (27 words)

The result is that, whereas syndiotactic PS is a semicrystalline material, the more common atactic version cannot crystallize and forms a glass instead. (23 words)

Example sentences (8)

A polymer that lacks any regular arrangement in the position of its alkyl substituents (R) is called atactic.

Atactic polymers are technologically very important.

Both isotactic and syndiotactic polypropylene are crystalline, whereas atactic polypropylene, which can also be prepared with special Ziegler–Natta catalysts, is amorphous.

If a special catalyst is used in its synthesis it is possible to obtain the syndiotactic version of this polymer, but most industrial polystyrene produced is atactic.

There are three types: isotactic (all substituents on the same side), atactic (random placement of substituents), and syndiotactic (alternating placement of substituents).

The result is that, whereas syndiotactic PS is a semicrystalline material, the more common atactic version cannot crystallize and forms a glass instead.

The two materials have very different properties because the irregular structure of the atactic version makes it impossible for the polymer chains to stack in a regular fashion.

This example is quite general in that many polymers of economic importance are atactic glass formers.
