Example of a biodegradable polymer pair is
- A nylon- 6,6 and terylene
- B PHBV and dextron
- C bakelite and PVC
- D PET and polyethylene
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) PHBV and dextron
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The polymers which disintegrate by themselves during a certain period of time by enzymatic hydrolysis and to some extent by oxidation, are known as biodegradable polymers. Example \(\rightarrow\) Poly- \(\beta\)-hydroxy-butyrate-co- \(\beta\)-hydroxyvalerate (PHBV), which is…
