To a very considerable degree the properties of a polymer can be tailored to specific applications. Much of the emphasis in this chapter will be on how the properties of polymers can be related to their structures.

The most common and thermodynamically favored chemical transformations of alkenes are addition reactions. Many of these addition reactions are known to proceed in a stepwise fashion by way of reactive intermediates, and this is the mechanism followed by most polymerizations.
