This might be a stupid question but something i have observed. Why is it called polyethylene and not polymethylene since essentially they are repeating units of methane. Probably by this logic every polymer should be named polymethylene. But that's not he case. I wonder why! By the way. Great lectures. Still on the 5th class and have learned a lot.

Professor you are very inspiring & extremely passionate. Thank you for sharing your lectures. Its really helpful.

[@yasser2j]

This is very useful Daren, thank you for all your and your assistance efforts to make this knowledge available free for everyone I know this was not easy and there was a lot of work behind it. Keep the good work, and the history will not forget it.

[@djlipomi]

Thanks for the kind words!

Older chemist here for a refresher after a "few" years. Oh, and an A- goes down to 85%? Times have changed Darren.

Thank you Sir Darren, it helps me a lot to understand polymer chemistry.

[@arumillirajesh3038]

Thank you very much for sharing your lectures on you tube sir. It gives me inspiration to do my research with maximum potential

Thanks for the feedback!

Hello Doctor, can you turn on subtitles for this video series(to arbic),please

[@trietluong6868]

This is so useful. But I wonder if you can turn on subtitle for all videos in this course, because of being a non-native English speaker, I can't catch up with the content sometimes. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@neehahussein2279]

Hi, this is great content. Could you please confirm what you said about examples of hdpe and ldpe. You said that shopping bags are ldpe and zip lock bag is hdpe. I have been doing a lot of research on packaging materials and have always thought ldpe is clear less noisy material like zip lock bags and hdpe is more noisy and hazy like shopping bags. Could you please clarify?

[@akramnouri1312]

Thank you for the video.

[@autumnelizabeth533]

Does anyone know how to find the podcast?

Hello i am student doing master degree , and i am doing my reaserch about Kenitic hydrate inhibitor , i do synthesis the polymer but when it comes to purifying my polymer i 'm weak, can you sugest me a books or a papers or anything to improve my skills when i'm taking the lab . thank you

[@mengnanzhang4814]

It helps me a lot, thx!

[@abdullahallam315]

Thanks Dr. Darren, I'd like to know, why do you write in a Capital form ? I mean, every word.

[@djlipomi]

Much easier to read handwriting in all capital letters when written on the board :)

[@stevencompton1486]

I do the same.

[@stevencompton1486]

aww don't be so hard on yourself. we love your corny jokes. X D

[@stevencompton1486]

I suppose I worded that wrong. I guess I should say that not everyone can appreciate an intelligent humor.

[@123SaurabhR]

Real subtle sense of humor. xD

Hypothetically speaking " do ribisomes interact with sillicone?...."

[@brianmbugua4193]

How he avoids the O..word... lol ..dreadful (rekindles my love of Ochem)
