Which of the following is a polyamide?
- A Nylon-6,6
- B Terylene
- C Polythene
- D Buna-S
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) Nylon-6,6
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Nylon-6,6 is a polymer having amide linkage, therefore, it is a polyamide.
\( n N H_{2}\left(C H_{2}\right)_{6} N H_{2}+n H O O C\left(C H_{2}\right)_{4} C O O H \)
Hexamethylene diamine
Adipicacid
