Abstract
This chapter covers polymers in which the most important linking group is the ether moiety, which is −O−. Acetals, also called polyoxymethylene or polyacetal, come in two types, homopolymer and copolymer, are included in this chapter. The third plastic type included in this chapter is polyphenylene ether that is also referred to as polyphenylene oxide (PPO). Chemical structures, manufacturers, and trade names along with typical end uses of the plastics are included besides extensive graphical physical, mechanical, and electrical properties as a function of temperature. Plastics included in this chapter are acetal homopolymer, acetal copolymer, and PPO.
