Polymer Chemistry Classification of Polymers – Notes prepared by The most common way of classifying polymers is to separate them into three groups - thermoplastics‚ thermosets‚ and elastomers5. The thermoplastics can be divided into two types - those that are crystalline and those that are amorphous. You may click on the words in the diagram below to learn more about these classifications. Thermoplastics Molecules in a thermoplastic are held together by relatively weak intermolecular
