assumes carbon chain contain either equal expected opposite
If the polymer chain assumes a helicoidal conformation in the crystalline state, and if it does not contain asymmetric carbon atoms, it can be expected that either helices of the same sense, or, in equal ratio, helices of opposite sense are represented in the lattice.
chain groups maintained
If the chain symmetry is maintained in the crystal lattice, the possible occurrence of different space groups is considerably restricted.
built containing regarded
All vinyl polymers may be regarded as built from monomeric units containing a tertiary carbon atom.
