In this video, I will be doing the classic Nylon 6,6 demonstration. I first convert adipic acid (which was made in a previous video) to adipoyl chloride. It is then reacted with hexamethylenediamine to form Nylon 6,6.
In the future, I will be making Nylon 6,6 the industrial way, by first going through the nylon salt.
Note: I write cyclohexanol in the video, but it is actually cyclohexane that I used. I also wrote in the comments it was cyclohexanol...so double mistake. oops

This channel is SO interesting! I barely remember Chemistry back when I was in high school but I got a B in it. Our teacher had one line I always remembered: in the very first day of class he said "If you don't know your valences, we cannot communicate." Memorizing valences was the first thing everybody did, and he quizzed us on it relentlessly. RIP Mr. Burns! Great guy and I'm sure he was way underemployed. He had an MS in chemistry and I was told he had something to do with Fermi's experimental reactor in Chicago.

@@festerdam4548 instead of failing to do the assignment resulting in a poor grade (thus lowering your overall average grade for the class) with extra credit, if you give the extra effort, you get extra points to your grade. raising your average. if you don’t do the extra credit there is no “punishment” because it’s is only additive rather than subtractive. only reward without punishment. in some cases (as with this person’s example) it’s a competition to encourage engagement and interest in the student. in other cases they reward based on how well you did, or in others if you did anything at all you get the points. The main difference between that and normal credit is that it’s not required. by nature of being “extra” credit, it’s not unfair to any students because if you don’t wanna do it you don’t have to, you just don’t reap the benefits; however, if you do the work you get rewarded for your efforts.

As Arthur Clarke said 'Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic' Funnily enough, Chemistry is one of the few 'magical arts' to have survived into the modern era. Alchemy sounds all fantastical and Alchemists frequently had very strange goals in mind, but they did establish most of the groundwork for what later became chemistry, and any occult and arcane fluff aside, it was not that far removed from modern chemistry in practical processes...

I find your making polymer synthesis videos quite exciting, not solely because they are complex and unique reactions, but also because i always wonder how these substances are made and molded to perform their function. Since you do a lot of organic chemistry, have you ever considered including in videos substance typification to further know what the real product and/or its impurities are present? Great video btw

Thanks man for such an elaborate video, I was a hater of organic chemistry always thought these reactions were just electrons dancing around never made sense to understand them and the intricacies of it. But this practice approach is much more reviling where actually those reactions and products solve something. You have made me fall in love with organic chemistry, this was not just memorising but troubleshooting as in other benches of science. Come to India we need people like you teaching. Thanks man truly appreciate your work.
