Solution

The correct option is A Teflon
TEFLON - It is an addition polymer of carbon tetraflouride.
$n C F_{2} = C F_{2} C a t a l y s t - ------- \to H i g h p r e s s u r e {[- C F_{2} - C F_{2} -]}_{n}$
Teflon
$∵$ The shift forming a chain in addition polymer, the empirical formula remains the same.
