Column A	Column B
I. Nylon	(i) Thermoplastic
II. PVC	(ii) Thermosetting plastic
III. Bakelite	(iii) Fibre

• A. I-(i)(iii), II-(iii), III-(i)
• B. I-(i)(iii), II-(i), III-(ii)
• C. I-(ii), II-(i), III-(iii)
• D. I-(iii), II-(ii), III-(i)

PVC is a thermoplastic polymer, that becomes pliable or mouldable above a specific temperature and solidifies upon cooling.

Bakelite is a thermosetting phenol formaldehyde resin, formed from an elimination reaction of phenol with formaldehyde.
The correct match is given below:

Nylon- Thermoplastic and Fibre
PVC- Thermoplastic
Bakelite- Thermosetting

Hence, Option B is correct.
