高聚物工业的发展需要寻找合成原料的新方法用来制备单体。在解决这一問題时,电解法能起很大的作用。在制备单体和其他原始物貭的某些步驟中必需涉及到氧化、还原或者卤化反应,这些反应在很多情况下用电化学方法来进行非常成功,甚至比通常采用的化学方法結果还要好。 The development of the polymer industry requires new ways of finding synthetic raw materials for the preparation of monomers. Electrolysis can play a big role in solving this problem. Certain steps in the preparation of monomers and other raw materials must involve oxidation, reduction or halogenation reactions which are in many cases very successful electrochemically and even better than the commonly used chemical methods.
