Solution

The correct option is C Acrylic: Toothbrush bristles
Teflon is a plastic that is used as a coating on non-stick cookware.

Melamine is an example of a thermosetting plastic which can be used for the uniform of firefighters.

Acrylic is also called artificial wool and is used to make winter-wear like sweaters.

Toothbrush bristles are usually made up of nylon.

Polyester is a synthetic fibre which is durable, easy to wash, wrinkle-resistant and dries off quickly. Therefore, it is widely used in making dry-fit sportswear.
