Write down the preparation,properties,and uses of Neoprene.
(N/A) Preparation: Neoprene (polychloroprene) is formed by the free radical polymerization of chloroprene ($2$-chloro$-1,3-$butadiene).
Reaction: $nCH_2=C(Cl)-CH=CH_2 \xrightarrow{\text{Polymerization}} [-CH_2-C(Cl)=CH-CH_2-]_n$
Properties: It has superior resistance to vegetable and mineral oils.
Uses: It is used for manufacturing conveyor belts,gaskets,and hoses.
