vinyyliyksiköihin
Vinyyliyksiköihin refers to the plural form of "vinyyliyksikkö" in Finnish, which translates to "vinyl unit" or "vinyl monomer." This term is primarily used in the context of polymer chemistry, specifically in relation to vinyl polymers. A vinyl monomer is a molecule containing a vinyl group (CH2=CH−) which can undergo polymerization to form long chains known as polymers.
Common examples of vinyl monomers include vinyl chloride, which polymerizes to form polyvinyl chloride (PVC); styrene,
The properties of the resulting polymer are directly influenced by the structure of the vinyl monomer. For
