The process of polymer synthesis is producing or tailoring the polymers to meet the
required need by chemically diverse the hydrogels for specific purposes. The synthesis process
depends on the application of the polymer, which means the process may require
biocompatibility, use of mechanical strength or addition to sensitivity to stimuli. The synthesis
process is able to produce synthetic polymers which means they are man-made. Halogenated
polymers such as PVC, Telfon and esters are done to meet specific needs. Polyvinyl Chloride
(PVC) is one of the most commonly used plastic (Earla, 2016). The synthesis on this material has
been carried out increasing out the strength. The PVC are ideally stronger than most known
traditional alternatives such as the copper and ductile iron. Plasticizers such as phthalates which
are more flexible are mostly used as synthesizers in PVC. Due to its ability to resist electrical
conductivity, the PVC is used as insulators and inflatable products.
Teflon is a synthetic polymer which is a fluorocarbon and has high molecular weight.
The polymer cannot be wet due to water or water containing substances. Additionally, the Teflon
are also used as non-stick coatings for pans and other cookware since they are resistance to heat.
They are also used on containers and pipework because they are non-corrosive and not reactive
to chemicals (Blumm, Lindemann, Meyer, & Strasser, 2011). Additionally, when used as
lubricants, the Telfons are able to reduce wear and tear, frictions and energy consumptions in
machines. Some esters belong to the class of unsaturated plasticizers.
Short chain esters have been considered to have pleasant and fruity odour characteristics.
The esters are produced through esterification process of a carboxylic acids. These
characteristics have made them to be commercially be produced in fragrance, cosmetics, food as
well as pharmaceuticals. The flavoring Esters are produced from the extractions from plants and
