Question

Which one of the following polymers are prepared by condensation polymerization?

• A. Styrene
• B. Nylon-6,6
• C. Teflon
• D. Rubber

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Nylon-6,6

Condensation Polymerization:-

This is a process of polymer formation by reaction of smaller molecules to form bigger ones by leaving products such as-$H_{2}O$ and methanol.

For example: In the formation of nylon $-6,6$ small molecules of Hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid and removal of a water molecule for each condensation of both the monomers.
