Question

Which of the following polymers contains $1,3$-butadiene as one of the monomers ?

• A. Butyl rubber
• B. Nitrile rubber
• C. ABS plastic
• D. SBR

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

Nitrile rubber
SBR
ABS plastic

The polymers Nitrile rubber, ABS plastic and SBR contains $1,3$-butadiene as one of the monomers.

Butyl rubber is copolymer of isobutylene and isoprene.

Nitrile rubber (Buna - N) is copolymer of acrylonitrile and $1,3$-butadiene.

ABS plastic is copolymer of $1,3$-butadiene and acrylonitrile.

SBR (Buna S) is copolymer of $1,3$-butadiene and styrene.
