Correct statements among \(i\) to \(iv\) regarding silicones are \((i)\) they are polymers with hydrophobic character \((ii)\) they are biocompatible \((iii)\) in general, they have high thermal stability and low dielectric strength \((iv)\) usually they are resistant to oxidation and used as greases.
- A \((i), (ii), (iii)\) and \((iv)\)
- B \((i), (ii)\) and \((iii)\)
- C \((i)\) and \((ii)\) only
- D \((i), (ii)\) and \((iv)\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \((i), (ii)\) and \((iv)\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Silicones are polymers and hydrophobic due to presence of alkyl groups. They are used as greases as some of them are cyclic
