Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) step growth polymerisation

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Nylon-6, 6 is an example of step growth polymerisation as monomers adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine are bifunctional and form bond with the loss of simple molecules. The dimer formed also contains two functional groups, thus undergoes a series of condensations in a stepwise…
