Notes:
1. No distinction needs to be made between natural polymers such as cotton, silk and jute and synthetic fibres such as polyester, nylon and acrylic. They are all fibres. 2. It is also obvious that some polymers crop up in more than one class. It is possible for one chemical type of polymer to act as a fibre, a thermoplastic, a thermoset and an elastomer, eg polyesters and polyurethanes. This suggests that the structure of the repeat unit (which determines the name of a polymer) is only one factor in determining the properties of a polymer.
