If every single teacher did a "Why this matters" for each chapter I would have been studying this subject a lot sooner.

[@gatoquantico3925]

I'm absolutely loving the way this guy teaches. It isn't for nothing that MIT is said to be the best university in the world ...

[@michaelknight2342]

If I had a prof that was even a fraction as excited about this stuff as this guy...

[@hasanorhan5583]

This is the difference between a good and bad teacher. A good teacher can make you love complicated or even boring scientific courses and a bad teacher can make your hate grow like a polymerization reaction.

[@mississippijohnfahey7175]

Lol, one of my most boring chem professors was a polymer chemist. We used to say he's made so many plastics that his sense of humor has become plastic too...

[@olaamin2847]

Thank you very much. I hope to see all your lectures.

[@jerrysakala3651]

Watched the whole video. This guy is brilliant. Love the way he teaches

[@capitaopacoca8454]

Woah it's crazy how thrilling this lecture is

[@edidionggraham3217]

Graham Favour, from Nigeria. It was very helpful sir.

[@jiangangxu1199]

A very useful introduction. Thank you.

[@ExopMan]

I'm thankful he focused on our modern problems with plastic.

[@AhmedNisar]

Scholarly holistic presentation..... dear sir.... I love to watch this session ....... "We all are Polymers"...... attracted me more.

[@markbell8967]

" . . . I'm really enjoying this!"
Really fun teacher.

[@ashrafmuhammad255]

Highly informative lecture 😍.

YOU ARE JUST AN AWESOME HUMAN BEING 👏

So awesome! Thanks a lot

thank you MIT, thak you master, greetings Manaus-BR

[@psychologicalreasoning2159]

Damn, I would love to have a professor that sounds like the real life *Jordan Belfort.*

[@kevalboricha2961]

Is topic very deeply explain my sir in atom level. 😌😌

[@tanujakadre1722]

Nice explained

[@valval2083]

Wow loving this guy

[@vedantjoshi1273]

A broken bond/radical = a Lonley human 😀
Jokes aside
The video was very helpful and easily understandable

[@michaelknight2342]

Thank you!!

[@alvarobriceno4500]

Breaks my heart he draws lines for hydrogen in his schemes... It is implied to be a hydrogen if there is no line ! Thanks for the video :) this is great

[@mouradkarim1754]

Thank you

[@xuanyidu3259]

Learning polymers for IB SL Chemistry lol, year 12. Challenging but fun

[@mariatabekyan8557]

Thank you from Armenia,

[@Emk315]

Free radical is like a broken marriage, you desire a relationship but now you must bond with another.

[@D3vilman95]

Next level teaching. Im skipping my polymer class (sweden) to watch this.

[@joewebster903]

Professor FYI the solution to this problem is life cycle which is connected to sustainability second new molecular techniques have been advanced for condensation and ring opening polymers that extends life times for over 100 years with no degradation while polyolefins can now be extended by 400 percent solely by controlling the morphology and orientation of crystals during fabrication thereby elimination oxygen diffusion and migration and extraction of the fortification changing the kinetic rate of free radical in situation degradation so please update your facts

[@LaudvekkysGrooveLab]

LMAO bruh that stance he makes when drawing structures takes me out everytime lmaoooo

[@MedX16]

He reminds me of Prof. Donal Sadoway

[@almche8978]

Thank you.is there full lectures of polymer?

[@mitocw]

There is another video on polymers, lecture 33. See the playlist: czcams.com/play/PLUl4u3cNGP63z5HAguqleEbsICfHgDPaG.html or the the course for more info: ocw.mit.edu/3-091F18. Best wishes on your studies!

@@mitocw thank you so much

[@almche8978]

@@mitocw Thank you a lot. Ok. But I mean if there is any full course of polymers chemistry such as a another subjects in channel will be also better , because The explanation of the professors in the channel is very excellent and we benefit from it a lot. regards

@@almche8978 doesn't look like it, but a guy named Joe Watson has a whole class on them. Search for his playlist

The same guy is late every day, but consistently so at around 2.5 minutes. I assume he has a conflicting schedule.

Rwanda have banned plastic bags all together! It's illegal to have plastic bags in Rwanda

[@claudionastruzzi8202]

Do you think he will be able to teach without reading everything on the paper ?

[@paulksmith8304]

Way to politicize chemistry. Indoctrination at the top.

[@ciccioformaccio7527]

A professor having so much difficulties in writing a (wrong by the way) phenyl group structure, cannot be a chemist.
