Is polythene saturated

Polythene, or polyethylene, is not considered saturated in the chemical sense. It is a polymer made from the monomer ethylene, which contains a carbon-carbon double bond. During polymerization, these double bonds are converted into single bonds, resulting in a long chain of saturated carbon atoms. However, the polymer itself can be classified as a saturated hydrocarbon because it primarily consists of single bonds between carbon atoms.
