Polyisoprenoids

Polyisoprenes are molecular systems containing many isoprene units connected to each other, which are part of the plant and animal world. These are unique molecules because they have high structural order. “Ordered” molecules. A distinctive feature of polyisoprene is the ability to crystallize when cooled; they heat up to 50-65 degrees C

Polyisoprenes can be obtained by synthetic and natural methods. Depending on the method of obtaining these substances and their properties, they are distinguished: thermal-polymer type gets rid of rings “b” from thermoplastic - dissolves in organic solvents, such as alcohol from viscoplastic - compacts when hardening in air or under pressure Structural The structure of polyisaprene allows it to be used to create a variety of products. For example, plastic bases, electrical insulating liquids
